In response to a global call for a strike on April 7, students, teachers, officers, and employees of Khulna University (KU) participated in a demonstration expressing solidarity with the people of Gaza says a BSS.
Over three hundred students, teachers, officers, and employees of the university brought out a protest rally from the university’s Hadi Square this morning.
After parading various streets on the campus, the protesters returned to the starting point, where the demonstration concluded with a rally.
Speaking as the chief guest, KU Vice-Chancellor Professor Dr Md Rezaul Karim urged all Muslim countries to unite in support of Palestine.
Demanding the right of Palestinians to die a natural death, the KU VC called on Muslim nations to play a crucial role in establishing an independent Palestine.
Among others, KU Pro-Vice Chancellor Dr Md Harun-or-Rashid Khan, Treasurer Professor Dr Md Nur Nobi, and Head of the Business Administration Discipline Professor Sheikh Mahmudul Hasan addressed the rally. The speakers expressed grave concern over the widespread killing of civilians-particularly women and children-and the indiscriminate destruction of homes and infrastructures in Gaza.
A doa mahfil was later held, seeking eternal peace for the departed souls of the killed citizens of Palestine.
