Blue Panel teachers meet DU VC
Thursday, 3 January 2008
A group of 12 teachers of the Dhaka University belonging to the Blue Panel today met Vice Chancellor (VC) SMA Faiz and discussed matters relating to the release of four teachers detained in the wake of August 20-22 unrest on the campus, reports UNB.
The meeting of pro-Awami League teachers' panel with the VC continued for about an hour.
Coming out of the meeting, Akhteruzzaman told reporters that they wanted to know the outcome of his Tuesday's meeting with their rivals of the Pro-BNP White Panel. They also discussed the reason for delay in setting free the detained teachers and students in spite of the government pledge.
The education adviser had earlier promised to release them within 15 days that ended on December 23.
Akhteruzzaman further said they urged the VC that he should not allow his good office to be misused by any particular section. The VC has ensured them that he would be careful in future in holding meeting with people representing various sections of teachers.
About the statement of white panel claiming pro-Awami League blue panel wanted to make the campus unstable on the issue of detained teachers and students, Akhteruzzaman said the 'allegation is rude, bad and irresponsible'. They should refrain from making such sour allegations.
He quoted the VC telling them as "the government is very positive regarding release of detained teachers and students."
