Dhaka University Teachers’ Association
A human chain organised by Dhaka University Teachers’ Association was formed at the foot of Aparajeya Bangla on Dhaka University campus. In the programme held on Monday the leaders of the association demanded arrest of those who patronized the culprits in vandalizing an under construction sculpture of Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman in Kushtia. While addressing the human chain, DU Vice-Chancellor Prof. Dr. Akhtaruzzaman said it has become necessary to bring the perpetrators to the book who dared to humiliate the architect of the country. “Stern action should be taken immediately against them, who are creating split among people by spreading provocative speech about religions,” he added. The VC urged the government to identify the patronizers immediately to prevent such incident in the future, saying, “A group of people of evil forces are active behind such incidents who always use people’s religious sentiment. So, it has become crying need to identify them and bring them to the book.” The function was addressed, among others, by Acting President of the association Dr Lutfar Rahman, its General Secretary Dr Nizamul Hoque Bhuiyan, DU Pro-VC (Academic) Dr ASM Maksud Kamal and DU Proctor AKM Golam Rabbani.
