Admission seekers sat on the railway track near the Chittagong University (CU) campus at Sholosohor in Chattogram city on Thursday — UNB CHATTOGRAM, June 02 (UNB): The shuttle train service on the Chittagong University (CU) route was hit on Thursday morning, as 50-60 admission seekers blocked the track in Sholosohor demanding they be allowed to appear for the entrance test again.
The protesters shouted slogans as they sat on the track, delaying the shuttle trains that ferry students from Chattogram railway station to CU by over half an hour.
Their repeated requests to the university authorities, the UGC and even the Education Ministry over the past six months for letting them take the entry test have only fallen on deaf ears, the protesters told the news agency.
Saikat Majumdar, one of the protesters, said, "We completed our 12th standard exams in 2020 and took the admission test for the academic year 2020-2021 of the university. The CU authorities changed the exam schedule thrice during the pandemic."
