Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has resigned and fled the country amid violent protests over a government jobs quota scheme. Her chopper, reportedly headed to Delhi, flew over Bengal and Jharkhand. Army Chief General Waker-uz-Zaman confirmed her resignation and announced the formation of an interim government to restore order. The Army and police have been instructed not to fire shots, and a high alert has been issued along the India-Bangladesh border. Protesters vandalized Mujibur Rahman's statue in Dhaka, and the Army Chief has urged the public to exercise restraint.
