The University Teachers Association of Bangladesh issued a Saturday evening statement denouncing violent attacks against Rajshahi University administrators. Islami Chhatra Shibir members allegedly blocked Pro-Vice Chancellor Professor Mainuddin and Proctor Professor Mahbubur Rahman during the incident. Attackers physically assaulted the proctor while stealing his wristwatch and approximately 10,000 taka. Association President Professor ABM Obaidul Islam and Secretary General Professor Morshed Hasan Khan labeled these actions illegal threats to academic environments. The organization demanded immediate investigations and strict punishment for perpetrators.
The teachers group emphasized that university protests must remain lawful and nonviolent. Violence and property destruction harm educational atmospheres that require cooperation between faculty, administrators, and students. UTAB called for enhanced administrative security measures and police assistance when necessary. Educational institutions serve as centers for knowledge creation and intellectual development. The association urged university leadership to implement effective prevention strategies against future incidents.
