Leaders and activists from different hall units brought out the processions, lead by BCL JU unit president Aktaruzzaman Shohel and secretary Habibur Rahman Liton, from university’s transport yard at around 3 pm. Marching different streets it ends at the Shahid Minar premises with a short rally. 

Addressing the program BCL JU unit president Aktaruzzaman Shohel said, BCL always tries to maintain a peaceful and friendly environment in campus. Ragging is a criminal offence. We will take all the necessary steps against ragging and sexual harassment in the line of central direction. If any involvement of ragging found against a BCL activist, s/he will face punishment for sure. We will open complaint box in campus where students can file complaint regarding sexual harassment or ragging, if necessary. 

Provosts of respective halls, however, are not found immediately if any incident occurs. Most of them are live in outside the university. I urge the authority to be more active in this regard, he added.
