Two organisations have been demonstrating at Dhaka’s Shahbagh demanding that the 30 per cent quota for them be kept in government jobs.
Muktijoddhar Sontan Command and Muktijoddhar Paribar — groups of freedom fighters’ descendants —have flocked to the Shahbagh intersection since Thursday morning, blocking the busy roads, reports bdnews24.
Protests created gridlocks, according to the traffic police control room.
The protests began hours after the abolishment of quotas in top government jobs on Wednesday.
