Dhaka University Vice Chancellor Niaz Ahmed Khan has praised the successful completion of the Dhaka University Central Students’ Union (DUCSU) election, calling it a milestone for student democracy.

“To continue students’ practice of expression, leadership, and democratic engagement, institutional platforms like DUCSU are essential,” he said.

Khan emphasized the need to rise above narrow partisanship and violence for the greater interest of the nation. He also highlighted cooperation between universities, noting that institutions like Noakhali Science and Technology University (NSTU) extended constant support and goodwill during the process.

“We managed to complete the DUCSU election in a manner accepted by the nation, with contributions from many and by Allah’s mercy,” the VC said. He also reflected warmly on Noakhali, describing its people as “struggling, hospitable, and among the best in the country.”
