Awami League General Secretary Obaidul Quader has said the quota reform issue will be resolved through a final hearing in the Supreme Court in the first week of August, urging students protesting quotas in government jobs blocking roads to return to their classes and to stop any activities that may cause public suffering.
Quader's call came at a press conference at the Awami League president's office in Dhanmondi on Wednesday, after the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court issued a status quo on the High Court's verdict on quotas for a month.
Also minister for road transport and bridges, Quader expressed confidence that the court will make a realistic decision.
Regarding the ongoing pension movement by university teachers, he said discussions are underway, and this issue will also be resolved soon.
He also addressed misinformation regarding the prime minister's visit to China.
He clarified that the prime minister's daughter, Saima Wazed, is in Dhaka and is somewhat unwell. Additionally, since the prime minister has completed all her programs in China, she will head back to Dhaka without staying overnight in Beijing, he added.
