More actions
Anti-discrimination Students Movement or Students Against Discrimination (Bengali: বৈষম্যবিরোধী ছাত্র আন্দোলন, Romanized: Bôiṣômyôbirōdhī Chātrô Āndōlôn) is a politically non-affiliated platform of student activists in Bangladesh formed in 2024 during the nationwide student-led quota reform movement. The group is credited for the ousting of the country's former prime minister Sheikh Hasina on 5 August 2024 through the Student–People's uprising.
On 22 October 2024, the Anti-discrimination Students Movement and the Jatiya Nagorik Committee jointly announced a five-point demand, advocating for sweeping political and constitutional changes to dismantle what they describe as a "fascist political settlement" and replace it with a democratic one.
