Description:

University students have been holding rallies for days against the system of reserving some public sector jobs for the relatives of war heroes, from when the country gained independence from Pakistan.

Some jobs are also reserved for women, ethnic minorities and people with disabilities.

Also, Britain's King Charles opens parliament, and the new government promises to "take the brakes off Britain" -- by boosting house building. Will it lead to more investment? We'll hear from a building firm.

And the luxury fashion brands being investigated for how they treat workers in their supply chains.
