Anti-government strike hits Bangladesh's capital
None
Schools and shops were closed and traffic was disrupted in Bangladesh's capital on Sunday as thousands of security personnel fanned out across the city during a daylong anti-government strike.
Opposition groups called for the dawn-to-dusk general strike to protest government moves to amend the constitution. The government wants to repeal a provision that requires it to hand over power at the end of its term to a nonpartisan caretaker administration to oversee elections. (AP)
