DU Correspondent :
A leader of quota reform movement was allegedly walloped on the Dhaka University campus at the time of submitting a memorandum to Vice-Chancellor on Monday.
Hasan Al Mamun is the convener of ‘General Students’ Rights Protection Council, which led the students’ quota reform movement last year. He was beaten by BCL men when
he went to the vice-chancellor office to submit a memorandum with multiple demands, including peaceful co-existence of all students’ bodies on the DU campus.
BCL’s Surjya Sen Hall unit Vice-President and postgraduate student of Institute of Health Economics Raisul Islam along with some 30-40 BCL activists attacked Mamun around 12:00pm when he was entering DU library, Mamun told reporters.
BCL leader Raisul is a follower of DU unit BCL President Sanjit Chandra Das.
Sanjit, however, denied the allegation and claimed that Raisul was with him at Madhur Canteen during the incident.
Mamun alleged that the BCL men attacked him as the quota reform platform declared to contest in the Dhaka University Central Students’ Union (DUCSU) election due on 11 March. “We planned to contest DUCSU polls from an independent panel.”
Following the incident, quota reform leaders along with Bangladesh Chhatra Union, Samajtantrik Chhatra Front and Chhatra Federation went to DU Proctor AKM Golam Rabbani’s office to complain about the incident. They locked into an altercation with the proctor there.
The proctor asked them to file a written complaint and assured of taking measures.
