Begum Rokeya University (BRUR) in Rangpur has once again observed July with deep remembrance of Abu Sayeed, the first martyr of the 2024 July movement. Two years after his death, his friends, classmates, teachers, and fellow activists continue to honor his courage and sacrifice. The campus, from its roads to memorial sites, still bears witness to his presence and the ideals he stood for—resistance against injustice and unwavering solidarity with fellow students.
Friends recall Abu Sayeed as humble, compassionate, and always ready to help others. He was active in social and humanitarian causes, regularly donated blood, and inspired others through his leadership during the student movement. Teachers describe him as a bright, respectful student who dreamed of becoming a civil servant based on merit and protested against educational inequality. University authorities, led by Vice-Chancellor Professor Dr. Md. Shawkat Ali, announced plans to build a residential hall, memorial gate, museum, and monument in his name.
Students have urged the administration to expedite these initiatives to preserve Abu Sayeed’s legacy, which they say remains alive in their collective consciousness.
