Islami Chhatra Andolan Bangladesh has called for strict measures to stop violence in educational institutions following a recent clash between Chhatra Dal and Chhatra Shibir at Chittagong City College. In a joint statement issued on Tuesday evening, the organization’s central president Muntasir Ahmad and secretary general Sultan Mahmud said that educational institutions, meant for knowledge and learning, are increasingly turning into arenas of violence and power struggles, posing a threat to the nation’s future.

The leaders noted that student politics should serve the welfare of students, but violent activities by certain groups are alienating ordinary students from political engagement. They urged authorities to arrest those responsible for the violence and ensure exemplary punishment. The statement also called on the administration and law enforcement agencies to take effective steps to restore a peaceful environment in educational institutions.

The appeal reflects growing concern over recurring campus violence and its impact on the academic atmosphere across the country.
