Bangladesh General Students Rights Protection Council (BGSRPC), the platform that came to the limelight by leading the quota reform movement, has termed the filing of case against Ducsu VP Nurul Haque Nur and his supporters as ‘unexpected’, as they didn’t attack or hurt anyone.
BGSRPC leaders held a press conference at the Teachers Students Centre (TSC) of Dhaka University Sunday afternoon.
Bin Yamin Mollah, joint convener of the platform, read out a written statement where they criticised DU Proctor AKM Golam Rabbani for his failure to protect students.
Bin Yamin said, "Chhatra League has created a ‘Fear Culture’ on campuses of educational institutions resorting to continuous terror. In the latest incident, they attacked Ducsu VP and others brutally. University authorities also worked in favor of the attackers by removing the CCTV footage.”
"Now they are trying to spread panic among the general students by filing cases,” Yamin said.
“As the Dhaka University proctor did not take any step to save the attacked students and even talked in favor of the attackers, we demand immediate resignation of the proctor,” he added.
Ducsu social welfare secretary Akhter Hossain, the only member of the platform (apart from Nur) to be elected onto the Ducsu executive committee, also attended the press conference.
