Sunday, 21 December 2008
More than 200 class-4 employees of Rajshahi University (RU) went on a strike for an indefinite period from Saturday, the first day of reopening of the university after 17-day closure, demanding regularisation of their jobs. Campus sources said the employees, whose appointment created controversy, locked the main gate and the gates of the administrative building, the central library and the academic buildings at 6:00 am. They also brought out a number of processions on the campus and chanted slogans. — UNB
