Following the turmoil, the government has declared a nationwide day of mourning, urging citizens to wear black badges to honor the deceased.

This heightened security came after a faction of student protestors called for renewed demonstrations, despite a recent withdrawal of protests by their coordinators.

The turmoil stems from student protests demanding the Sheikh Hasina-led government to abolish a controversial job quota system.

In the latest update regarding the situation in Bangladesh, the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) has announced that over 4,500 Indian students have safely returned to India amid ongoing protests in the country.

In response to the turmoil, Dhaka police have imposed a ban on all public gatherings in the capital to curb further violence.

The clashes, which have left at least 105 people dead and over 1,500 injured, represent one of the most severe crises the country has faced in recent years.
