Students of the 20th batch (academic year 2024–25) at Jagannath University have locked the administrative building and confined Vice-Chancellor Professor Md. Rezaul Karim and Treasurer Professor Dr. Sabina Sharmin for 12 hours. The protest began at 10 a.m. on Sunday, January 25, 2026, demanding inclusion in the first installment of a special stipend. Students submitted a memorandum to the VC before locking the main gate at noon, chanting slogans and vowing to continue their sit-in until their demands are met.
Protesters alleged that the administration failed to provide any written assurance and that some officials left the building through a back gate. Student leaders, including JnUSU AGS Masud Rana, expressed solidarity and called for a peaceful resolution through discussion. A representative team was reportedly negotiating with the treasurer, but students insisted they would not leave without a written decision.
The students issued an ultimatum demanding correction of the housing stipend list and payment of the first installment within January 2026. They also announced a boycott of all classes and exams until their demands are fulfilled.
