Bangladesh Protest: Protesters Set State TV HQ On Fire, Internet Shut; Over 32 Dead|Oneindia

Protesting students in Bangladesh set the country's state broadcaster ablaze on Thursday, a day after Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina appeared on the network seeking to calm the escalating clashes that have killed at least 32 people and left over 2,500 injured.

University students in Dhaka and other cities have been holding rallies for more than a week protesting the system of reservation in public sector jobs, including that for the relatives of war heroes, who fought for the country's independence from Pakistan in 1971.
