Three more teachers of Chittagong University have resigned from their different administrative posts, one day after the resignation of proctor, assistant proctor and 15 others.
The three teachers—Provost of Deshnetri Begum Khaleda Zia and Commissioner of Transport Desk Prof. Dr. Mohammad Saidul Islam and Provost of Atish Dipankar Srigyan dormitory and assistant proctor Muhammad Yakub—resigned from their respective posts showing ‘personal reasons’.
Assistant Proctor Muhammad Yakub, said “I did not accept the new proctor of the university ideally as he is a supporter of BNP. It is heard that he was involved in the politics of Chhatra Dal. It is impossible for me to accept a person like him at the important posts, that's why I have resigned.
Provost Sumon Barua, said “I have resigned from my post on personal grounds. I need time for my research and students.”
