Students from the 2019-20 academic year of the Anthropology Department at Rajshahi University protested, demanding the opportunity to take their examinations. Eleven students were specifically at the center of the demonstration, advocating for special consideration to be allowed to participate. The protest involved locking the department’s doors as a form of demonstration. Details regarding the specific reasons for the denied exam access or the nature of the “special consideration” sought were not immediately available. University authorities have not yet released a statement addressing the students’ demands or the disruption caused by the protest. The situation highlights ongoing concerns regarding exam eligibility and access to education within the university. Further developments are anticipated as the university responds to the student action.
