Two days after the clash between Rajshahi University students and locals, situation on the campus became normal — with classes and exams resuming on Tuesday.

Bus services have also resumed on the Rajshahi-Dhaka highway in front of the main gate of the university.

Rajshahi University proctor Professor Ashabul Haque said, ‘Situation on the campus has become normal. Students have returned to classes and are sitting for exams. The demands of the students have already been accepted.’

Meanwhile, Professor Farid Uddin Khan, of the department of economics, staged a sit-in programme at Zoha Chattar of the university from 10:00am to 11:00am on Tuesday, protesting at the attack on students. Around a hundred students expressed solidarity with Professor Farid Uddin Khan.

Professor Farid said, ‘Due to the negligence of the university administration, locals and the police attacked students on the campus. When the police attacked, the students were behind the Binodpur gate of the university. The police entered the campus and attacked them.’

‘Many students are still injured and admitted at Rajshahi Medical College Hospital. There is no question of conducting exams in this situation. I am holding this peaceful program by boycotting classes, in solidarity with students,’ he said.

Meanwhile, a case has been filed against 200 to 300 people with the Railway Police Station, for blocking the railway line and destroying government property, said Abdul Karim, station superintendent of Rajshahi Railway Station.
