Hold student union polls to make way for new leadership: Obaidul

Awami League presidium member and lawmaker Obaidul Quader on Thursday said a lack of elections to student unions at educational institutions was creating anarchy in the student politics.

He urged the student leaders to refrain from holding on to positions in violation to the constitution of their organisations which set certain age limit for holding an office and to pave the way for leadership from the competent newcomers.

He said AL president Sheikh Hasina ordered the leaders of all student organisations to hold councils in time in line with their constitutions.

Obaidul Quader made the remarks in his address as the chief guest to the council of Bangladesh Chhatra League Dhaka University unit at the Institution of Engineers, Bangl-adesh at Ramna in the capital.

BCL president Mahmud Hasan Ripon inaugurated the council chaired by BCL DU unit president Sohel Rana Tipu.

BCL general secretary Mahfuzul Haider Chowdhury Roton and BCL DU unit general secretary Sajjad Sakib Bads-ha, among others, also addre-ssed the inaugural session.

The present office bearers of the BCL DU unit will resign and new leaders elected in the council, the speakers told the council.
