CU Correspondent :
The Chittagong University (CU) authorities have formed a three-member committee to probe into allegations against two of its teachers over making derogatory remarks about Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina on Facebook.
The committee was formed on Thursday. The teachers are Khandakar Ali Ar Raji, an assistant professor of communication and journalism department, and Maidul Islam, an assistant professor of sociology department.
Acting registrar of the university KM Nur Ahmed in a letter asked the committee, headed by law faculty Dean Prof ABM Abu Noman, to submit the report within seven working days. Deputy Registrar Md Hasan Mia and Assistant Proctor Mizanur Rahman are member secretary and member of the committee respectively, said Nur Ahmed.
On July 17, a group of BCL men submitted a memorandum to the university’s vice-chancellor against the two teachers accusing that they had posted defamatory remarks against the PM and urged the students to create anarchy on the campus.
The BCL men have also announced the teachers “unwelcome” on the campus, forcing them to stay away from the campus on security grounds.
