Begum Rokeya University (BRU) in Rangpur has once again become immersed in memories of the July Movement as friends, classmates, and teachers recall the courage and sacrifice of Abu Sayeed, the first martyr of the 2024 uprising. Two years after his death, his companions say his presence still lingers across the campus—from the English Department corridors to the Freedom Memorial and Media Square—symbolizing resistance and selflessness.
Friends described Abu Sayeed as humble, compassionate, and always ready to help others. Fellow activist Md. Shamsur Rahman Suman recalled his leadership during the July 2024 protests, while English Department head Dr. Mohsina Ahsan remembered him as a bright and modest student who joined the movement against merit-based discrimination. Vice-Chancellor Prof. Dr. Md. Shawkat Ali said initiatives are underway to build a dormitory, memorial, museum, and gate in his name.
Students have urged the university to expedite permanent measures to preserve Abu Sayeed’s legacy, emphasizing that his ideals remain alive in their collective consciousness.
