Students of Sunamganj Medical College staged a road blockade on Tuesday morning demanding the immediate opening of the college hospital. The protest began around 10 a.m. in front of the college on the Sylhet–Sunamganj regional highway and continued for about an hour, causing traffic congestion on both sides of the road and significant suffering for commuters.
According to the students, the hospital was supposed to open in October 2025 but remains non-operational even in mid-2026. They said authorities continue to give excuses instead of fulfilling their commitment. Student representatives stated that without clinical classes, medical education cannot be complete and accused the administration of deceiving both students and local residents by starting the college without ensuring hospital facilities.
The students have been boycotting classes and demonstrating since June 21, demanding the hospital’s opening, proper academic activities, and adequate clinical training. They vowed to continue their movement until the hospital begins operations.
