How did the movement start?
A movement that started in the name of students in Bangladesh later turned into a violent civil war. This movement was first started with the demand to end reservation in education. In Bangladesh, reservation is given to the descendants of the freedom fighters of 1971.
The court accepted the students' demand and reduced the reservation. However, even after this the violent protesters did not calm down. After this the protesters started a movement demanding the resignation of Sheikh Hasina.
People attacked police stations, offices of ruling parties and politicians. Thousands of vehicles were burnt. The government banned Facebook, Messenger, Instagram and WhatsApp.
