Unwanted incident between DU and RU

Wednesday, 14 February 2024



Recently, an inter-university cricket competition was held at Rajshahi University. The final match took place between the Rajshahi University and the University of Dhaka at Sheikh Kamal Stadium of the former on February 12, 2024.
However, during the game, unexpected and unpleasant incidents occurred, resulting in the injury of four players. The two universities have issued differing statements regarding the incident. The University of Dhaka strongly condemned and protested the alleged attack on its students, while Rajshahi University's statement condemned and protested the dissemination of such claims, asserting that Dhaka University's statement was unexpected and regrettable.
In the light of these conflicting accounts, I urge the authorities of both universities to form a joint investigation committee to examine the incident thoroughly. The truth must be uncovered and presented transparently to all parties involved.
