Protesting BCL attacks on different occasions, general students of Dhaka University today burned effigy of the proctor and demanded his resignation.

The students under the banner ‘Students against Repression’ brought out a procession from the Teachers Students Center (TSC) on the campus and stopped in front of Raju Sculpture parading through Kala Bhaban- Business faculty, reports our Dhaka University correspondent.

Later, they burnt the effigy of the university Proctor Golam Rabbani in front of the Raju Sculpture.

The students brought out the procession wearing colorful sunglasses.

“Whenever we go to the proctor with any of our demands, he is scared to look us in the eye and even we do not want to look in the eyes of a failed proctor and that is why we did the rally wearing colorful sunglasses,” Abu Rayhan Khan, a third year student of mass communication and journalism, told our staff photographer.
