Abstract

Due to the lack of democratic government in Bangladesh, there was no substantial improvement in the overall condition. In 2024, students staged a 39-day demonstration to challenge and oppose racism. The objective was to collect precise statistics on the student mobilization between 2018 and 2024, taking into account the broader environment of Bangladesh. The study utilized a qualitative research technique. The analysis encompasses both the present state of affairs in Bangladesh and the entirety of the movement. We collected data from both primary and secondary sources. The results suggest that the 36-day undertaking was successful but necessitated substantial sacrifices. The quota movement eventually evolved into a widespread coup d'état that successfully freed the nation from the clutches of fascism. The campaigners successfully accomplished their goal of reforming the quota system. In addition, the government recruited them as consultants to execute the essential reforms required following 15 years of monopolistic control. They embody the upcoming cohort that will assume leadership and governance of Bangladesh's future. After triumphantly overcoming obstacles in their quest for truth, they gained widespread recognition as the trailblazers who would guide the establishment of a government focused on justice in the future.
