Saral Mitra Chakma, an executive member of the Dhaka University Central Students’ Union (DUCSU), publicly criticized a university teacher in a Facebook post on Saturday. He alleged that the teacher made threatening remarks toward him after the DUCSU sports secretary visited the teacher for official university work. According to Chakma, the teacher told the sports secretary to send “that small Chakma boy” to him to test his courage, which Chakma interpreted as a threat directed at him.

Chakma stated that the teacher’s anger stemmed from the recent launch of a Saturday bus service for students, a move the teacher had allegedly tried to block. In his post, Chakma urged the teacher to behave appropriately, reminding him of his professional role and age, and to avoid using language unbecoming of an educator. He also called on the teacher to reflect on issues of racism and human respect.

The post drew attention to tensions between student leaders and faculty members over campus services and interpersonal conduct.
