quota system

My beloved country cannot be bloodied like this: Shakib Khan

Following violent clashes between student protesters and Bangladesh Chhatra League (BCL) activists at different public universities around the country, celebrities have voiced their support for the quota reform movement. The July 15 incident left approximately 300 people injured, including female students and BCL members. As of July 17 (3:00pm), six fatalities have been reported due to the ongoing unrest.

Students and quota holders say reform is necessary

The quota system must be executed in a way that upholds fairness, inclusivity, and equity.

Editorial / Address issues concerning quota system

We are puzzled that a committee has now been formed to “review or reform or cancel” the quota system for the civil service, come as it does after the prime minister had already announced in parliament on April 11 that quotas in public service recruitment will be abolished and later, on June 26, that a committee led by the cabinet secretary was working to resolve the matter.

Quota: Students condemn ‘threats’, rally against BCL

Students moving against quota system in civil service parades against ruling party activists, demanding security of their activists at dormitories.

Students observes strike demanding gazette on quota

Students of different universities and colleges is observing a two-hour strike on their respective campuses demanding publication of a gazette regarding abolition or reform of quota system.

How relevant is the existing quota system?

The recent demonstra-tions by students demanding an end to the existing Bangladesh Civil Service quota system in the recruitment process deserve urgent attention of the government. The rationale for the introduction of the quota system had its roots in the policy for recruitment to public service that was adopted in September 1972.

An unrealistic quota system

While the BCS examinees and students of various public universities and colleges across the country have been demonstrating on the streets demanding reforms in the existing quota system in Bangladesh Civil Service (BCS) examinations, some groups of freedom fighters' children have also been protesting, but clearly, for the opposite reason.
