The action was taken as per recommendation by a fact-finding committee that was formed immediately after a clash between two groups of Bangladesh Chhatra League's activists on August 20. The fact-finding committee submitted its report to the university administration on September 20. The expelled students are AKM Ziaul Haque, Meer Mehedi Mahmud and Zahid Hossain Sohag of political science department, Al Mahmud of Bangla department, Ruhul Amin Rana of Persian department and Razu Ahmed and Ataus Samad of history department. “We have expelled them from the hall for three month on charges of involvement with the clash and vandalism,” Provost of the hall ABM Farook told The Daily Star.
