Ruet students lock classrooms
Students of civil engineering department at Rajshahi University of Engineering and Technology (Ruet) yesterday put all the classrooms of the department under lock and key demanding removal of the department head.
They also laid a siege to the department office for one hour to press home their demand.
Students alleged that Prof Iqbal Matin, the head of the department, misbehaved with them whenever they met him to discuss academic problems.
They also alleged that following his taking charge as head of the department they are facing session jam because of delay in publishing results of different sessions.
Sources said no classes and examinations of the department were held as the department authorities did not take any initiatives to unlock the classrooms yesterday.
Denying the allegations, Prof Iqbal Matin told this correspondent that he did not know the causes of the students' agitation.
“Any one can come to me to talk any problem,” Prof Iqbal said adding some students are trying to create untoward situation to disrupt the congenial atmosphere of the department.
