A month-long vacation of Dhaka University (DU) on account of Durga Puja, Ramadan and Eid-ul-Fitr begins tomorrow.

The university will reopen on November 11, sources said.

Meanwhile, DU Syndicate yesterday approved appointment of four lecturers at Islami Studies department with note of descent by two members.
