Two Dhaka University students have experienced a decline in their physical condition after continuing a hunger strike for 58 hours at the Raju Sculpture premises. On Friday night, Vice-Chancellor Professor Dr. A B M Obaidul Islam visited the site to assess the situation and expressed concern for their health. He stated that the university administration wants the students to remain healthy and that their demands will be properly conveyed to the government. He also mentioned that the issue would be discussed in the national parliament among both ruling and opposition parties.

The Vice-Chancellor emphasized the health risks faced by the fasting students and said that a medical team had been sent the previous night to examine them, but the students refused treatment. The visit was attended by the Pro-Vice-Chancellor (Administration) Dr. Saima Haque Bidisha, deans, the proctor, and other senior officials. DUCSU Social Service Secretary A. B. Zubair reported that one student’s mother broke down in tears upon seeing her son’s weakened condition but did not pressure him to end the strike.

Members of martyr families and injured individuals have also visited the site to express solidarity, while eyewitnesses noted that despite physical weakness, the students remain mentally strong though disappointed by the lack of visible state response.
