Curfew

The first night of curfew and a surprise ‘abduction’

It was a clear moonlit night. There was a slight breeze. An eerie quiet blanketed the streets.

Rebooting the economy

The crackdown on the nonviolent uprise of the students and the subsequent one thing leading to another chain of events locked down the economy, only figuratively reminiscent of the pandemic in 2020

Sparse crowds at Star Cineplex amid curfew adjustments

In recent years, attendance at Eid-special movie releases saw a significant surge. However, this Eid, the Shakib Khan starrer "Toofan" not only met but exceeded records set in the past few years. The film's demand remained robust even post-Eid, prompting the country's largest multiplex to add more screenings each week.

Is it not easier to defeat your enemies in parliament than to be permanently on the warpath against some shapeshifting enemy?

Curfew and violence slowly bleeding the economy

Resulting damage could have severe long-term impacts

Transport operators sitting idle, counting losses

The violence centring the quota reform protests and associated curfew are preventing trucks and covered vans from plying on the roads and highways, leading to losses for their operators alongside businesses dependent on them

Nation under curfew

The impact of all these on the poor and low-income groups will be devastating.

A sudden curfew

A nation-wide government curfew was declared from midnight on Friday till 10 am on Sunday.

A sad day for the nation

Why did it use so much force if it was “principally” in favour of quota reforms?
