Student protesters recently brought traffic to a complete halt at a major capital intersection. Demonstrators from seven colleges blocked the area, demanding official approval for a proposed central university. They marched from Dhaka College to the Science Lab crossing, stopping all vehicle movement. The students insist that an updated draft act for the university must be passed immediately.
They further demanded that the final ordinance receive presidential authorization. The draft legislation aims to integrate the seven colleges under one university. It was previously published online for review after stakeholder consultation meetings. Protesters emphasized the need for the advisory council to approve the updated version.
