Dozens of people have been injured by violence at student protests in Bangladesh.
Police fired tear gas and charged with batons after fighting broke out between rival groups near Dhaka on Monday.
Students have been protesting for two weeks, calling for an end to what they say are discriminatory quotas for public service jobs.
They say it favours supporters of the ruling party, and want a merit-based system instead.
Al Jazeera’s Tanvir Choudary has the latest from Dhaka, Bangladesh.
