Amidst student protests, the administration of Jagannath University has revoked its decision to close the Bangamata Sheikh Fazilatunnesa Mujib Hall. The decision was confirmed by Hall Provost Dr. Dipika Rani.
Dr. Dipika said, "Those who wish to stay can stay, and those who wish to leave may do so. Regular services such as gas, water, and electricity will continue in the hall."
The university administration has also issued a notice regarding this matter.
Earlier, in an emergency syndicate meeting of the university, a decision was made to vacate the hall and suspend academic activities. Students protested against this directive during the meeting, disrupting proceedings in the provost office.
Students expressed their disagreement with the administration's unilateral decision to evacuate the hall.
At that time, students chanted slogans like, "We do not accept the administration's decision," and "This hall is our home, we will not leave."
