DU administration is patronizing the secret organization Shibir: Chhatra Dal Secretary

Staff Correspondent

Nationalist Chhatra Dal General Secretary Nasir Uddin Nasir has said that the Dhaka University administration, Vice Chancellor (VC) and Proctor are patronizing the Islamic underground organization Chhatra Shibir.

He said this in a post on his verified Facebook ID on Tuesday, August 6th.

Nasir said in his post that an exhibition organized by Shibir at Dhaka University’s TSC has insulted the spirit of the great Liberation War and the country’s independence by displaying pictures of anti-independence activists and war criminals such as Matiur Rahman Nizami, Ali Ahsan Mohammad Mujahid, and Golam Azam.

He wrote, “The foundation of Bangladesh’s great war of independence was laid from the soil of Dhaka University. Shibir has insulted independence by putting up pictures of Razakars and Al-Badrs on the TSC of that university. We strongly condemn and protest against this.”

The Chhatra Dal leader also said that Chhatra Shibir is the successor of the 1971 genocidal Chhatra Sangh and Al-Badr Bahini. In the past, they had nominated an Al-Badr commander as the VP of DUCSU and had published derogatory comments about freedom fighters in their publications.

He said, the Dhaka University administration, VC and proctor are patronizing the camp. It is with the help of the administration that they were able to carry out such heinous programs, which have insulted the university students and hurt the sentiments of the citizens of the country. The VC and proctor cannot avoid responsibility for this.

Nasir also commented in the post that the Tofazzal and Samya murders and some other incidents have proven the inaction, inefficiency, and patronage of the VC and proctor to a ‘secret group’.

He said, “Any program of any university organization requires the permission of the proctor and permission is given only after reviewing the content. Today’s incident has made it clear that Shibir organized this program with the consent and patronage of the proctor. The proctor must accept responsibility for this incident and be held accountable.”
