The student wing of the university has submitted a memorandum to the Vice-Chancellor of Begum Rokeya University (BRUR) protesting the ban on student politics in the campus on Sunday.

Member Secretary of BRUR Jatiyatabadi Chhatra Dal Md. Rashed Mandal and Convenor Md Al Amin along with others submitted the memorandum to the vice chancellor of the university Prof Dr. Md. Shaukat Ali.

The memorandum says, "We are shocked and outraged by the planned attempt to ban student politics and the tragic incident like the killing of Shaheed Abu Saeed." Student politics is established as an important medium for students to assert their rights and express opinions on national issues. But some cliques are systematically trying to stifle the voice of students by shutting down student politics, which is a direct attack on democratic rights.

Besides, the memorandum urged to take necessary measures to ensure exemplary punishment to those involved in the killing of Shaheed Abu Saeed.

AL Amin the convener of BRUR student party said that " To stop student politics means to miss the opportunity to create new leadership for the country and pave the way for the administration to monopolize the university students. If student politics ceases, ordinary students will lose their right to demand their just demands, while fascist culprits will have the opportunity to continue their misdeeds under the banner of non-partisanship.

We should remember that student politics does not mean establishing a reign of hatred and tyranny like the Chhatra League. Student politics means the politics of realizing the rights of ordinary students. Begum Rokeya University, Chhatra Dal is always ready to be a voice for the rights of ordinary students in the democratic process of independent Bangladesh. I have handed over the memorandum to the VC sir, protesting against the attempt to ban student politics and demanding the immediate arrest of the killers of Abu Saeed.
