Pabna medical students lock principal's room
Students of Pabna Medical College confined the principal to his office for about five hours yesterday to realise their eight-point demand.
During agitation, they locked the room of the principal at 9:00am.
The demands include appointment of new teachers, recruitment of more manpower such as night guards to ensure security at the students' hostel, early completion of construction work of the students' dormitories, opening a college canteen, a library and a common room besides transport service for the students.
We have to appear in the upcoming examinations while we could not prepare ourselves for the subjects due to shortage of teachers at microbiology, physiology and pathology departments, said Abu Torab Mim, an agitating student.
If the teachers and staffs of the college are not recruited within a month, we will boycott examinations, he said.
On June 1, the students began an indefinite class boycott programme to realise the demands.
Contacted, Principal of the college Mohammed Ali said they have already informed the ministry concerned about the matter.
