The general students of Jashore University of Science and Technology (JUST) staged a protest demanding the resignation of Vice-Chancellor, Treasurer, Registrar, Hall Provost, Proctor, Board of Regents member Dr. Iqbal Kabir Zahid and the followers of the Vice-Chancellor.
At 11:30 yesterday, the protest marched from the main gate of JUST to the administrative building. There they held a sit-in program. At this time they started chanting various slogans against the vice chancellor and his followers.
Regarding the vandalism of Bangabandhu and Sheikh Hasina's mural, Sajib Hossain, a student of Electrical and Electronic Engineering Department, said that our program today was to remove all traces of Hasina's family from the university. We did it successfully. But we did not damage any building of the campus. Even though we are students, we did not enter, only the mural of Hasina, the murderer outside, was broken. Hasina's inaugural plaque has been broken at GNOME Centre. No student entered inside the GNOME Center. Many people say that we are wasting the resources of the university which is a complete rumor.
In this regard, JUST Vice-Chancellor Dr. Md Anwar Hossain said that he has no plans to resign at the moment. Because he is the coordinator of cluster admission test of 24 universities. 97 percent of the current admission process has been completed. If you finish the remaining 3 percent, you will be exempted. Think about what to do next. He also said, but if the government wants, he will think about it.
