Suranjit urges Nahid to resolve SUST crisis

Saturday, 5 September 2015


An Awami League (AL) senior leader urged on Friday Education Minister Nurul Islam Nahid to take immediate steps to resolve the ongoing crisis of Shahjalal University of Science and Technology (SUST), reports UNB.
"Teachers of Shahjalal University have been launching a movement demanding removal of its Vice Chancellor from his post. There is an allegation against the VC that he used students to launch attack on the teachers who have been demanding his removal. I urge the Education Minister to take immediate steps to resolve the ongoing crisis of the university", the AL leader said.
"He (the Vice Chancellor) will have to resign willingly or the Ministry will have to remove him", he added.
Suranjit, also an AL advisory council member, came up with the remarks while addressing a discussion at the Institution of Diploma Engineers in the city.
He also said SUST VC Aminul Haque Bhuiyan has lost the moral right to stay in his post as teachers alleged that he let loose students against teachers. People came to know through media how students attacked teachers to foil the movement, he said.
