Despite a longstanding ban on political activities at Gono University in Savar, an affiliate committee of the BNP’s student wing, Chhatra Dal, has been announced with 12 members. This move directly violates the university’s founding policies, which require students to pledge abstention from political involvement as a condition of admission.

Md. Nirjon, president of the newly declared committee, said, “Gono University is a politics-free campus, and we enrolled here under that understanding. We are not conducting any party-related activities inside the campus premises.”
