Students start to vacate dorms in JU
28 May, 2017
The residential students of Jahangirnagar University (JU) have started to leave their dormitories following a decision of the authorities last night.
Meanwhile, JU Vice-Chancellor Prof Farzana Islam assured the students to open the halls soon, Jewel Rana, president of JU Bangladesh Chhatra League unit, told reporters while they under the banner of general students met with the VC around 11:00am.
The authorities last night in an emergency syndicate meeting took a decision and asked the students to vacate their halls by around 10:00am today.
The decision came after the students laid siege to the JU Vice-Chancellor Prof Farzana Islam’s residence demanding punishment for the BCL men who earlier attacked them while they were protesting deaths of two fellows in Friday's road accident blocking the Dhaka-Aricha highway.
