The lack of jobs and opportunities is what I believe has caused the riots.
It's an issue in so many other countries. Should the students start violence there? What about setting fire to public buses and buildings? What about stealing things from PM house and what it has to do with damaging Zia ur Rahman's statue?

Totally shocked to see the damage to statues of such important people in the history of Bangladesh.
I wasn’t trying to justify w the violence at all, more just a rationale for the reason why they were rioting. I agree that a lack of jobs & opportunities is common in other countries too but more and more we are seeing protests turn violent in other countries too.
I do think the election this year has also been a big factor. Usually if people are unhappy they could vote out an incumbent but I don’t think you could call the recent election free & fair. When this happens a number of times the people will eventually rise up.
