The Bangladesh Jatiyatabadi Chhatra Dal, the student wing of the Bangladesh Nationalist Party, on Monday demanded a law to ban 鈥榗landestine politics鈥� in all educational institutions across the country.
Chhatra Dal president Rakibul Islam Rakib made the demand while talking to reporters before attending the conference of the organisation鈥檚 Sylhet Murarichand College unit as the chief guest.
His remarks came a day after a number of students鈥� organisations at a meeting with the Dhaka University administration protested at Islami Chhatra Shibir鈥檚 鈥榗landestine politics鈥� on the university campus.
The JCD leader told reporters at Murarichand College that it was the moral responsibility of the student community to take a stand against those who believed in anti-human politics in 1971.
He said that though the general students were frightened due to different activities of student politics in the past, Chhatra Dal would continue student-friendly politics in educational institutions.
He also alleged that activists of the banned Chhatra League, the student wing of the Awami League, were continuing in the halls of Dhaka University.
Jatiyatabadi ChhatraDal鈥檚 Sylhet Murarichand College, better known as Sylhet MC College, unit is going to have a new committee of Chhatra Dal through direct voting after almost 21 years.
A total of 639 voters of the organisation are supposed to exercise their voting rights in the council session to elect new leadership, the organisation leaders said.
Five candidates are contesting for the post of president and four others are vying for the post of general secretary of the MC College unit of Chhatra Dal, they said.
