30 Men Demanding Back 30% Quota | A Ridiculous Movement

Honourable Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, a strong personality, has finally taken  a historic decision regarding quota elimination. Students of universities and colleges were demanding quota reform for several months. Many students were severely injured and some others were arrested for involvement in this protest. After many scenes, recently a gazette notification has been published declaring quota elimination in the recruitment of the first and second class jobs. 

Bangala Tribune, a famous online news portal, today shares a link entitled, "30 men demanding back 30% quota."  

The common mass and general students are feeling fresh and they heartily are expressing their gratitude towards the Prime Minister. But there are some men who are demanding 30% freedom fighter quota again. This scene has made the general people disgusted. If they are meritorious, they should prove their worth. They have still equal opportunities like other ordinary students to face PSC or other authorities. Eliminating quota does not mean eliminating their chances or rights to qualify for job exams. It is good to see that the job market is open to all. Now, all are allowed to play the same games in the same fields. The industrious will survive whereas the lazy will defeat in the battle of jobs. 

Demanding quota back looks very embarrassing to all intellectuals. We, the general, people are now looking for a talent based newer Bangladesh. 

Heartfelt thanks and felicitations to AL Leader Sheikh Hasina again for courageously taking a revolutionary decision though there were innumerable rumours whether quota will be demolished or not.
