KUET students staged a protest at 9 PM on Tuesday against the university’s indefinite closure of residential halls. Demonstrators chanted slogans rejecting what they called an “illegal syndicate decision” and declared they would not vacate the dormitories. Some students claimed this was the first such decision since the July uprising. Protesters vowed to resist eviction, even if security forces were deployed. They remain firm on their six-point demand, including the removal of the Vice-Chancellor, accusing authorities of ignoring the plight of 150 injured students.
