Bangladesh Violent Protest: Supreme Court Scales Back Job Quota That Sparked Deadly Violence

Bangladesh’s Supreme Court has ordered a significant reduction in the country’s controversial quota system for government jobs, following nationwide protests and violent clashes that have resulted in numerous casualties.

The new ruling stipulates that 93% of government jobs will now be allocated based on merit, with the remaining 7% reserved for relatives of veterans from Bangladesh’s 1971 war of independence and other specific categories.

Previously, 30% of these jobs were reserved for war veterans' relatives.

U.S. Supreme Court Sides With Trump | Legal Protection ends, Mass Deportation looms

The U.S. Supreme Court has allowed the Trump administration to end Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for over 350,000 Venezuelans, stripping legal protections granted during the 2021 humanitarian crisis. Issuing a brief order with no explanation, the Court sided with Trump’s argument that immigration policy falls under executive authority. Only Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson dissented. The ruling could have immediate humanitarian and economic impacts. Immigration advocates call it one of the largest legal status removals in modern U.S. history. #SupremeCourt #TPS #TrumpImmigrationPolicy #VenezuelanMigrants #Deportation #ImmigrationNews #USPolitics #HumanRights #BreakingNews #SCOTUS #TrumpAdministration #MigrantCrisis #LegalStatus #KetanjiBrownJackson #ImmigrationLaw #USSupremeCourt #PolicyShift #TPSTermination #VenezuelaCrisis #MigrantProtection #ImmigrationReform #Dissent #MigrantRights #TrumpPolicy #JudicialRuling Also Read Supreme Court Permits Trump Administration to Revoke Legal Protections for 350,000 Venezuelans Facing Deportation :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/supreme-court-allows-trump-to-strip-legal-protections-venezuelans-011-4158147.html?ref=DMDesc India Is Not a Dharmashala: Supreme Court Echoes Country's Struggle Amid Refugee Overload :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/india-is-not-a-dharmashala-supreme-court-echoes-countrys-struggle-amid-refugee-overload-4157789.html?ref=DMDesc SC Raps MP Minister for Calling Col Sofiya Qureshi ‘Sister of Terrorists’, Calls Apology ‘Crocodile Tears’ :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/sc-raps-mp-minister-for-calling-col-sofiya-qureshi-sister-of-terrorists-calls-apology-crocodile-4157513.html?ref=DMDesc
