The Chittagong University (CU) Chhatra League has been outraged by the death of a Chhatra League activist in a bloody clash between the army and Awami League workers at a National Citizens Party (NCP) rally in Gopalganj. The leaders and activists of the organization have held a huge demonstration and protest program on the university campus demanding a fair investigation into the brutal incident and swift exemplary punishment for the culprits.

It is known that this protest procession was taken out on the university campus on Thursday, July 16, in response to the Gopalganj massacre on July 16, 2025. A large number of Chhatra League leaders and activists participated in this program.

As the procession circled various important roads and administrative buildings of the university, the surrounding area became bustling with slogans from the participants.

The protesters strongly condemned the incident, calling it extremely brutal. At the same time, they expressed their deep condolences to the bereaved family of the slain Chhatra League activist and demanded that the main masterminds and culprits behind the murder be brought to justice immediately.

Addressing a brief rally at the end of the procession, top local leaders of the University Chhatra League expressed their anger and said, “The massacre committed against our workers on the soil of Gopalganj cannot be accepted in any way. We strongly protest this unwanted and brutal incident. The culprits must be identified through an immediate, impartial and fair investigation and strict punishment must be ensured as soon as possible. Otherwise, the student community will not stay at home.”
