Student group Jatiya Chhatra Shakti staged a protest at Dhaka University on Thursday, demanding the resignation of Home Affairs Adviser Lt. Gen. (Retd.) Jahangir Alam Chowdhury. The protest accused him of failing to arrest attackers involved in the assault on Inquilab Mancha convener Sharif Osman Hadi and of worsening public security. Demonstrators burned an effigy of the adviser and announced plans for a symbolic funeral prayer on Friday.

The rally began at Shahbagh and moved through the TSC and VC areas before concluding at the Raju Sculpture. During the gathering, Jatiya Chhatra Shakti president Zahid Ahsan sharply criticized the adviser, calling him unfit for his position and accusing him of irresponsibility. Protesters chanted slogans demanding Jahangir’s resignation and accountability.

The protest reflects growing frustration among student activists over law enforcement and political accountability. Organizers warned of further demonstrations if the adviser does not step down, signaling potential escalation of campus-based political unrest.
