Students take position again demanding quota reforms
Students have gathered again in the Dhaka University premises demanding quota reforms in government job recruitment.
They took position in front of Raju sculpture with placards for their demands at around 12 pm on Tuesday.
The agitating students raised question, if law is applicable for the incident of DU Vice Chancellor’s residence attack then why it will not be applicable for the attackers on student? They demanded explanation from the administration and justice over the incident of attack on students.
One of the agitating students said, government has to deliver written speech within 3 days over meeting our demands or not. We should be informed specifically within 7 days whether there is any need of law amendment.
About Agriculture Minister Matia Chowdhury’s comment in the parliament he said, she has to say sorry by 5 pm. She termed the whole student society as Rajakar.
Another student said, we are not safe in the dormitories or campus. We strongly condemned the attack on general students.
The students are continuing their movement from February 14 with 5-point demand to reform the existing quota system. The demands are- reducing quota to 10 percent from 56 percent through reforms, filling the posts based on merit if there is no eligible candidate from quota, not using quota facility more than once in recruitment test, no special recruitment test under quota system and unilateral cut mark and age limit for all in employment.
