One demand now

This news article from The Daily Star (Bangladesh) covers a massive protest rally held at the Central Shaheed Minar in Dhaka, where the Anti-Discrimination Student Movement announced a single demand: the immediate resignation of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and her entire cabinet. Movement organizer Nahid Islam explicitly rejected the PM's offer for dialogue, also calling for Hasina to be brought to justice for killings and abductions linked to the quota reform protests. The rally drew tens of thousands of participants from across Dhaka and beyond, including teachers, lawyers, rickshaw-pullers, parents, and students, with simultaneous protests erupting in cities and districts nationwide such as Narayanganj, Feni, Jashore, and Thakurgaon.
