Some students on Sunday blocked the Nilkhet intersection in the capital calling on the university authorities to allow them to sit for the Dhaka University entry test for the 2nd time.
They started the demonstration around 12:30pm and then left for the registrar building of Dhaka University around 1:15pm.
The students held a sit-in program in front of the registrar building to press home their demand.
Tanvir Ahmed, one of the students who joined the rally, said: "I was sick during the admission test of Dhaka University in the 2020-21 session and that’s why I want a second chance."
Another student named Shohan Ahmed said that they are just asking the authorities to give the students a 2nd chance. “If educational institutions like medical college can allow students to sit for a second entry test, then why can’t DU do it as well,” he questioned.
