They boycotted semester examination of Science and Arts faculties and
other departments. Students marched towards Rafiq Bhaban to stop semester examination of Bangla department where only some students gathered.
Protesters blamed the varsity authorities for forcing students to sit for the examination. JnU unit of BCL, the ruling party affiliated students body also joined the protest to make sure that no examination can be held. The authorities did it accordingly.
