The ongoing civil unrest in Bangladesh has its roots in the controversial quota system that has been reinstated recently. The quota is said to have reserved 30 percent of government jobs for family members of freedom fighters from the 1971 Bangladesh liberation war against Pakistan. The quota system was originally established in 1972 but was briefly abolished in 2018 before being reinstated. 

To oppose the quota system, students took to the streets in large numbers. The protests escalated after students clashed violently with police and law enforcement authorities. 

Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, who has been in power since 2009, has resigned and flown to India. The military has assumed control and plans to establish an interim government. Over 300 people have lost their lives, and thousands more have been injured amid the civil unrest.
