A student of Rajshahi University of Engineering and Technology (RUET) was allegedly assaulted at the university’s Bangla Tiffin canteen on Wednesday morning following a dispute over seating. The incident involved Toufiqul Islam, a student of the Mechanical Engineering Department from the 2020–21 session, who was attacked by three to four unidentified students after refusing to vacate his chair. Security personnel later arrived at the scene. Initially, the canteen authorities denied the incident but later admitted that a physical altercation had occurred after pressure from eyewitnesses.
Toufiqul Islam stated that he and a friend were eating when several unknown students demanded their seats. When he refused and suggested they sit nearby, they verbally abused and then assaulted him. RUET’s Deputy Director of Student Welfare, H.M. Monjur Morshed, described the incident as regrettable and confirmed that the university had spoken with the victim. He said steps were being taken to identify and take strict action against those responsible.
The university administration has begun the process of investigating the assault and ensuring accountability for the incident.
