Teachers at Barishal University continued a shutdown for the third consecutive day on Wednesday as part of their ongoing protest demanding promotions. The movement has brought classes, exams, and administrative activities to a standstill. Allegations have surfaced that some pro-Awami League teachers are leading the agitation, with reports linking them to a 2024 meeting supporting Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s government.
The protest, which began on April 21, resumed on May 11 after a brief pause. Due to the shutdown, at least 32 final exams have been postponed, and most have yet to be rescheduled, causing frustration among students. Some departments have also faced restrictions on lab use, and the university football team missed a scheduled match due to administrative offices being locked.
University authorities have called for dialogue to resolve the crisis. The vice-chancellor stated he is ready to meet the teachers and, if necessary, take steps to reopen offices. However, the protesting teachers remain firm in their stance, and uncertainty continues over when academic activities will resume.
