Disruption of classes at Chittagong University

Academic activities at the Chittagong University campus has virtually been suspended following an attack allegedly by some BCL members during which the driver of a university shuttle train and a policeman were injured. The disgruntled members were, reportedly, protesting the inclusion of alleged criminals and irregular students in the newly formed full committee of CU unit of BCL. But whatever the reasons, why should general students, members of the law enforcement agencies and government workers suffer for an intra-party issue of the student wing of the ruling party? 

What message does this send to the all the students and the people when the country is going through a critical time? Why hasn't the government moved yet to bring normalcy to the campus? Why has no action been taken against the perpetrators so far? Why does the ruling party not realise that it is causing more damage to their reputation than good? Is the AL going to take responsibility if the ongoing turbulence leads to a session jam in the university? 

We wonder how much longer the disruptive activities of the BCL members would be allowed to continue at the seats of learning around the country. Given the clout of the Chhatra League, it may not be possible for the university administration to end the ongoing situation at the university without the intervention of the ruling party. We call on the AL to take steps to restore the sanctity of universities so that academic activities can be resumed immediately.
