‘Will speak out if obstructed’, says DU VC on DUCSU electionDhaka University Vice-Chancellor (VC) Prof Niaz Ahmad Khan has said he will publicly speak out if the Dhaka University Central Students’ Union (DUCSU) election process faces any obstruction. But if that support fades, he warned: “I will call everyone and clearly explain at what stage I am being obstructed.”His remarks came amid growing speculation over the university’s ability to organise a free and fair DUCSU election. “We and the students fear whether this election will be fair at all,” he said. Amid these developments, the university’s hall provosts held a separate meeting on Friday to assess the overall environment for holding the election. In a previous Provost Standing Committee meeting, Abdullah-Al-Mamun, provost of Salimullah Muslim Hall and the committee’s convenor, reportedly expressed similar concerns about the election atmosphere.
