Dhaka University (DU) has laid to rest martyred student leader Sharif Osman Hadi beside the grave of national poet Kazi Nazrul Islam at the university’s central mosque premises. Following the burial, DU Vice-Chancellor Professor Dr. Niaz Ahmed Khan stated that the university had embraced its son, symbolizing a mother’s reunion with her child. The decision to bury Hadi on campus was unanimously approved in an emergency Syndicate meeting held late Friday night with the consent of his family. The Vice-Chancellor emphasized that the burial site represents the university’s highest honor, as it also holds the graves of several DU members who sacrificed their lives during Bangladesh’s Liberation War. He expressed gratitude to Hadi’s family and those who assisted in the funeral, including journalist Dr. Mahmudur Rahman. The ceremony was attended by senior DU officials, political leaders, and student representatives. Hadi, remembered as a courageous voice in the July uprising, now rests among the nation’s revered figures. His burial at DU symbolizes institutional recognition of his sacrifice and the enduring spirit of student activism in Bangladesh.
