সংঘর্ষ, হামলায় ৬ আন্দোলনকারী নিহত: গায়েবানা জানাজা ও কফিন মিছিল – July-36

This is a Bengali news article dated July 16, 2024, documenting a day of widespread violent clashes across Bangladesh between quota reform protesters and government-aligned groups (police, Chhatra League, Jubo League). Six protesters were killed that day, most notably Abu Sayed, an unarmed student from Begum Rokeya University in Rangpur, who was shot by police — his iconic image standing with arms outstretched before police guns became a symbol of the movement. The article covers the protesters' announcement of a gayebana janaza (symbolic funeral prayer) and coffin march in honor of the dead, followed by a call for a complete nationwide shutdown. It also notes that Chhatra League members were expelled from university campuses, which were declared "politics-free zones," while Chhatra League's central president issued a threatening statement against the protesters. The document aggregates numerous news clips from major Bangladeshi outlets (Prothom Alo, Daily Star, Kaler Kantho, Samakal, etc.), reflecting the scale of violence, international attention (U.S. monitoring), and political responses from various parties including support from Jatiya Party and BNP-affiliated student groups.
