Bangladesh soldiers patrolled the deserted streets of the capital Dhaka on July 20 during a curfew meant to quell deadly students-led protests against government job quotas that have killed at least 105 people this week, Reuters reported. A suspension on internet and text message services has remained in place since Thursday (July 19), cutting off Bangladesh from the world as police cracked down on protests that have continued despite a ban on public gatherings. Overseas telephone calls mostly failed to connect while the websites of Bangladesh-based media organisations did not update and their social media handles remained inactive. “Where will we go amid this curfew? This is insane,” said Shilpi Begum, a Bangladeshi woman who works in Saudi Arabia but was unable to return there amid the curfew in Dhaka. #Bangladesh #BangladeshViolence #BangladeshArmy #QuotaProtest Join ANI's YouTube membership to get access to perks:
