Following the death of two school students who were mowed down by a speeding bus on July 29, 2018, thousands of students from various schools and colleges, as a mark of protest, started controlling traffic in Bangladesh’s capital, Dhaka.

Protests turned violent on the eighth day with the death of two more students as the police started firing rubber bullets and tear gas to break up the demonstrations.
