Some 55 teachers of Sylhet Agricultural University (SAU) have resigned from 67 administrative posts protesting the physical assault on the university proctor allegedly by its registrar, reports UNB.
They submitted their resignation letters to the VC around 5pm yesterday, said SAU Teachers’ Association General Secretary Dr Mrittunjoy Kundu. If Registrar Badrul Islam does not quit, the teachers will boycott classes and examinations for an indefinite period.
Sources said a tussle took place between Proctor Abdul Baset and Registrar Badrul Islam following an exchange of heated arguments on Tuesday night over the appointment of some new teachers.
The incident brought the Teachers’ Association and the Officers’ Association at loggerheads as the teachers demanded action against the Registrar while the officers against the Proctor.
