On the night of 12 January, thousands of students gathered on the campus of Jahangirnagar University, one of Bangladesh’s leading public universities, located on the outskirts of Dhaka, for an open-air concert by a popular rock band. Organised to mark the university’s Annual Day, the show continued well past midnight. Students sang and danced in unison, many visibly euphoric. Among them were large numbers of female students, many wearing hijab – the Islamic headscarf.
