Amid the violent condition in the counntry, a Bangladesh national shared her opinion on the current situation in her country. She said, “She (Hasina) caused a lot of atrocities on the students. Let us see what will happen now. The next government should not do the same to the students.”
Another Bangladesh national said, “We have heard that Sheikh Hasina has left the country. The country is in a bad state. We want peace.”
The country has been engulfed by protests and violence that began last month after student groups demanded scrapping of a controversial quota system in government jobs. That escalated into a campaign to seek the ouster of Hasina, who won a fourth straight term in January in an election boycotted by the opposition.
At least 91 people were killed and hundreds injured on Sunday in a wave of violence across the country of 170 million people as police fired tear gas and rubber bullets to disperse tens of thousands of protesters.
