Savar private medical college students agitate
Students of Gonoshasthaya Samaj Vittik Medical College in Savar yesterday boycotted all classes and examinations with a 10-point demand including registration under Bangladesh Medical and Dental Council (BMDC) and educational activities under Dhaka University.
Around 400 students of medicine, dentistry and physiotherapy departments of the college staged a four-hour sit-in programme and demonstrated on the campus from 10am.
They also formed a human chain and announced that they will continue the demonstration until their demands are met.
The agitating students said no medical college should be operated under a private university but their college has been operating under Gono University, a private institution.
This correspondent could not reach Prof Dr Laila Parveen Banu, acting vice-chancellor of the university, despite repeated phone calls.
