The student movement that started demanding quota reform in Bangladesh got some resolution on Sunday. The highest court in the country has ordered the quota reform. The reservation of descendants of freedom fighters in government jobs has been reduced. It has been said that 93 percent of the recruitment in Bangladesh will be based on merit. The remaining seven percent of seats will be reserved. Among them, descendants of freedom fighters will get a five percent reservation, and backwards classes and disabled people will get a one percent reservation.

The quota reform movement started in Bangladesh, demanding the complete removal of reservations for the descendants of freedom fighters. But the court did not give that order. Despite this, it can be said that the demands of the students have been accepted. But even after that verdict on Sunday, the unrest did not stop in Bangladesh. A curfew has been imposed by the government. Internet services have been suspended in large parts of the country since last Thursday. Curfew is sometimes relaxed for one to two hours. Citizens are collecting their daily necessities during that time.
