Stern action if protestors try to violate law and order: DMP

Dhaka Metropolitan Commissioner Habibur Rahman warned that they would take stern action if quota reform protesters do not follow the court order.

He said, "The ongoing quota movement is a matter of court. Every citizen should respect the court order and if anyone tries to break law and order, whoever it is, we will take stern action.”

Earlier on July 12, addressing the quota reform protesters, the commissioner said any attempts to disrupt law and order would not be tolerated.

The Supreme Court on July 10 issued a status quo on the High Court judgement that declared illegal a 2018 government circular abolishing the quota system in government jobs.
