The authorities have deferred the Rajshahi University Central Students’ Union, hall unions, and senate student representative elections again, citing ongoing complete shutdown programme enforced by a section of teachers, officials and employees.
According to the new decision, RUCSU, hall unions, and senate student representative elections will be held on October 16, said chief election commissioner Professor F Nazrul Islam.
He said that they had deferred the elections considering the ongoing volatile situation on the campus.
‘A complete shutdown programme enforced by the university teachers, officials and employees for an indefinite period is under way. Many students have already left the campus. Considering all of these, we have deferred the elections,’ he said.
