DU students rally against cancellation of textbook revision committee
During the rally, students voiced their concerns over labelling Professor Samina Luthfa as being “anti-Islam”
A group of students of Dhaka University have protested the cancellation of the textbook revision committee and labelling Professor Samina Luthfa of Sociology Department of the university as "anti-Islam".
A protest rally organised by general students took place at the base of the Raju Memorial Sculpture at Dhaka University on Monday (30 September).
During the rally, students voiced their concerns over labelling Professor Samina Luthfa as being "anti-Islam".
Referring to her significant contributions to the student movement, they argued that such baseless labelling hinders efforts to create a non-discriminatory and just Bangladesh.
The protest followed the recent cancellation of a textbook revision committee by the Ministry of Education, after objections from certain religious organisations regarding two of its members.
