In Bangladesh, At least 75 students were injured as police baton-charged and tear-gassed demonstrators outside the Secretariat in Dhaka.

The students, protesting against the education adviser and secretary over HSC exam mismanagement, clashed with law enforcers after breaking open Gate 1. Both sides hurled brick chunks, and several vehicles were vandalised.

Meanwhile, students in Chattogram blocked roads demanding officials’ resignations, while others protested on the Dhaka-Barisal highway, calling for transparency over a recent aircraft crash at a school in Uttara and denouncing late-night exam rescheduling amid growing public frustration.
