The agitating students of Jagannath University are staging sit-in demonstrations in front of Bangladesh Bank Sadarghat Branch on Tuesday morning.
“We are staging the sit-in as part of our regular programme of the movement,” Shariful Islam, convener of the parishad and president of Chhatra League’s JnU unit, told the Dhaka Tribune.
The JnU students claimed that the Sadarghat Branch of Bangladesh Bank was built on the university’s land.
The students have been agitating for long to recover 13 halls from illegal occupiers since the university started its journey on October 20, 2005. The latest protests began on February 18, with teachers and staff joining in.
