Bangladesh Protests: PM Resigns, 50 Dead

Amid political turmoil in Bangladesh, India has been urged to enhance border vigilance to prevent unrest from spilling over, as emphasized by former Indian high commissioner Pankaj Saran. Following mass protests and the resignation of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, India's embassy in Sylhet has advised nationals to stay in touch and remain alert. The unrest, which started over the government's job quota system, has resulted in at least 50 deaths and numerous injuries. Unicef has reported that 32 children were killed during the protests, condemning all violence and urging protection for children. The Bangladeshi government has denied knowledge of Unicef's death toll and has announced a three-day holiday and internet disruptions to manage the situation.
