Students in Bangladesh have been protesting about a law that reserves a percentage of state jobs for the descendants of fighters in Bangladesh's independence war in the 1970s. Around 300 people have died in violence between protesters, opponents and security forces over recent weeks. After a large protest in the capital Dhaka, calling for the Prime Minister's resignation, she stepped down and escaped the country. And I have a headline here that talks about some things that have happened since Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina fled the country.
It's from AP News and it says 'Bangladesh's President dissolves Parliament, clearing the way for elections to replace ousted leader'. So that headline again, it's 'Bangladesh's President dissolves Parliament, clearing the way for elections to replace ousted leader'. And that's from AP News. So this headline is talking about how the President, which is a less powerful position in Bangladesh's system, has closed the current Parliament so that elections can take place.
