A heated altercation broke out at Chittagong University on Tuesday when leaders of the Jatiyatabadi Chhatra Dal (JCD), led by branch president Alauddin Mohsin, attempted to assault Ibrahim Hossain Rony, the elected vice president of the Chittagong University Central Students’ Union (Chaksu). The incident occurred around 11:45 a.m. during a Victory Day discussion at the university’s Jarultola area, disrupting the event.

Witnesses reported that the confrontation began after Rony mentioned the presence of external BNP activists on campus in his speech, which angered Mohsin. Rony later told reporters that those accustomed to bringing outsiders to campus were responsible for such unrest and urged all student leaders to act responsibly. Attempts to reach Mohsin for comment were unsuccessful.

The incident underscores ongoing tensions among student political groups at the university, raising concerns about campus safety and the influence of national politics on student affairs. University authorities have yet to issue an official statement regarding the confrontation.
