BCL men foil DU students' human chain

Pro-Awami League Bangladesh Chhatra League (BCL) activists of Dhaka University unit yesterday foiled a human chain of DU students demanding reduction of the quota ratio in Bangladesh Civil Service and other government job recruitment exams.
Around 100 students had arrived in front of Aparajeyo Bangla around 11:30am to form the human chain.
The BCL activists then arrived and barred the students from holding the programme. The activists claimed that the students were followers of pro-Jamaat-e-Islami student organisation Islami Chhatra Shibir who wanted to create anarchy on the campus.
“The protestors were influenced by Shibir and so were barred from demonstrating,” said DU unit BCL General Secretary Omar Sharif.
