Defying hall eviction orders for the second day, students of Bangladesh Agricultural University (BAU) continued their protests, blocking the Dhaka–Mymensingh rail route indefinitely from 11 a.m. today. Rail services have since been suspended.

The agitating students locked the university treasurer’s office and Pubali Bank branch gate while pressing their six-point demand. Their demands include:

Withdrawal of eviction orders by 2 p.m.

Uninterrupted access to dormitory facilities

Resignation of the proctorial body within 24 hours

A public apology from the vice chancellor over recent attacks, vandalism, and harassment

Punishment of teachers and outsiders involved in violence

Immediate issuance of combined degree certificates
