Students of Bangladesh Agricultural University (BAU) have blocked the Dhaka-Mymensingh railway line, pressing a three-point demand that has halted train services in the area since Sunday morning.

The protesters, mainly from the Faculty of Agriculture, demanded the creation of 10th-grade posts for agriculturists in all research institutions, including DAE and BADC, and the abolition of quotas in 9th-grade BADC positions.

They warned of continuing their agitation if their demands are not met.
