The Banaras Hindu University (BHU) has agreed to let pass-out Bangladeshi students accommodate campus hostels until the situation returns to normal in their country. This decision is keeping in view the interest of the students, who were asked to vacate the hostels as mandated upon the completion of the programme.
Professor SVS Raju, coordinator at BHU’s International Centre, informed that the decision has been taken keeping in mind the challenges the students will face on going back to their home country. The university has concluded that it will help the students in all possible ways who wish to continue staying at the campus hostels. They will not be asked to pay any fee for the accommodation either.
He also added, “We have guaranteed the students to inform us regarding any other difficulty they face in their stay, which will be resolved on a priority basis. They may stay here until the Bangladesh situation normalises.”
The protests in Bangladesh started last month as a result of students’ demand to end the quota system which reserved 30 percent of government jobs for veterans’ families who fought in Bangladesh’s war of independence in 1971.
