Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has resigned from her post and left Bangladesh amid the rising unrest in the country, ending her 15- year term in the government. As she is flown to India, thousands of protestors stormed her official residence in Dhaka, defying military curfew to march in the capital. This development comes at the heels of the Bangladesh Supreme Court’s July 21 decision to scrap most of the job quotas, which have been at the centre of the storm in the students-led protests in the neighbouring country. The official death toll as of today, stands at 300, with several injured in the clashes between the protestors and the state forces.
