The court ruled just 5% of the roles can be reserved for veterans' relatives. However, protestors are calling for the court order to be implemented before more protests are called off.
A third of public sector jobs had been reserved for the relatives of veterans from the country’s war for independence from Pakistan in 1971.
Authorities in Bangladesh have imposed a nationwide curfew and communication blackout has been imposed.

When the British used to rule over Bangladesh, 150 deaths were considered a pretty normal, peaceful and non violent protest. BBC must be wondering what's all this fuss about.

পররাষ্ট্রমন্ত্রী হাসান মাহমুদ সোমবার ঢাকায় এক সাংবাদিককে টেলিফোনে বলেছেন, আন্দোলন কোনোভাবেই দমানো যাচ্ছে না। আর যদি এবার আন্দোলন দমিয়েও ফেলি কিন্তু পরবর্তীতে দেশ চালাতে পারব কিনা জানি না

I am a Bangladeshi. Currently I am living abroad. There is no mobile network, internet connection, and Wi-Wi-Fi in our country. Since last Six days I have no contact with my family in back home. The govt is killing the innocent students and the ordinary people who are helping students. Almost 400+ students were killed by Bangladesh government. Many students are Under 18. They are school children. The government is doing genocide now. We want the resignation of current prime minister Shekh Hasina. She is the most wanted criminal. I urge the United Nations and Human right organizations to help our students and save their lives and ensure the human rights in Bangladesh.
