Demand for KUET VC’s removal resonates in Dhaka; students block Shahbagh, go on hunger strike
Students from various institutions in Dhaka blocked the Shahbagh intersection for almost two hours on Tuesday night, demanding the resignation of Khulna University of Engineering and Technology (KUET) Vice Chancellor Dr. Muhammed Masudur Rahman.
Students from Dhaka University, BUET, Jagannath University, Dhaka College, and various other institutions gathered at Shahbagh around 10:30pm. They left Shahbagh at 12:15am.
Earlier, they announced the protest programme with the theme of “Kuet Bachate Shahbagh Blockade” (Blockade to save KUET at Shahbagh).
During the blockade, Abdullah Saikat, a student on hunger strike at KUET, joined them live from the Khulna campus. He expressed his gratitude to everyone for their support.
