Dhaka University’s nationalist teachers’ group, Sada Dal, has strongly protested a tribute paid at the Central Shaheed Minar under the banner of the Dhaka University Teachers’ Association. In a statement issued on Saturday, Sada Dal leaders Professor Dr. Morshed Hasan Khan, Professor Dr. Abdus Salam, and Professor Dr. Md. Abul Kalam Sarkar denounced the act as unethical and audacious, arguing that the association currently has no functional committee.
The statement alleged that a few teachers, rejected by most colleagues after the July 2024 mass uprising, used the association’s name to lay wreaths in honor of language martyrs. Sada Dal leaders claimed these individuals lack moral and legal legitimacy, accusing them of opposing student movements during the uprising and playing controversial roles in that political period. They further noted that after the August 5 political change, the group was labeled “publicly discredited,” and a high-level university investigation is ongoing.
Sada Dal urged the university administration to take exemplary disciplinary action based on the inquiry report and to prevent politically controversial teachers or groups from using sensitive university spaces for political activities.
