DU admin wants to create terror

Dhaka, Apr 20 (Just News): The authorities of Kabi Sufia Kamal Hall of Dhaka University are trying to create terror by throwing students out of the hall, alleged Bangladesh Sadharan Chhatra Odhikar Sangrakkhon Parishad joint convener Nurul Haque on Friday.

Earlier on Thursday night, hall provost Sabita Rezwana confirmed about evicting some students for spreading misleading posts on Facebook from fake accounts.

Nurul Haque said, “We were informed that many students left the hall after 11:00pm. Some of them were confined in the provost’s office too.”

“The authorities can take necessary action if any student does anything offensive. But they want to create terror by throwing students out of the hall in this way,” Nurul added.

Parishad’s convener Hasan Al Mamun said, “Despite our full cooperation, the authorities took this decision without discussing with us. It is simply aggressive.”

The authorities have expelled at least 50 students Thursday from 9:00pm, said an official of the hall.

Later, Bangladesh Sadharan Chhatra Odhikar Sangrakkhon Parishad (Bangladesh General Students’ Rights Protection Council) gathered outside the hall to protest and chanted slogans against the provost.

The general students of the hall were alarmed by the action of the hall authorities.

They alleged that the hall authorities were taking action selectively against the 26 students who earlier protested against the Bangladesh Chhatra League leader Iffat Jahan Isha.

The provost has threatened to cancel their studentship, bring them under surveillance and file cases against them, they said.

Speaking of the allegations, Sabita Rezwana said, “We have called several students to check their cell phones. Some of them were spreading rumours on Facebook through fake accounts. We are sending them away with their legal guardians after taking undertakings from them.”

It was, however, not confirmed immediately how many students were evicted from the hall till 1:00am.
