BCL men beat up DU contractors
[Bangla Daily Star] A group of leaders and activists of Bangladesh Chhatra League (BCL) allegedly beat up some listed contractors of Dhaka University yesterday over tender for two development works worth Tk 10 lakh on the campus. Sources said some BCL men, including a former president of Sergeant Zahurul Haq Hall, a central committee vice-president, two activists of Surya Sen Hall and their followers, beat up some 12 to 15 contractors at Haji Mohammad Muhsin Hall playground when the contractors denied to hand over schedules of tender for two development works. Yesterday was the last date for purchasing tender schedule of development two works--one worth Tk 7.5 Lakh in Muhsin Hall and another worth Tk 2.5 lakh at Shibbari on the campus, said a contractor on condition of anonymity. "Where will we go? Please write our story so that the vice chancellor notices it. Otherwise, we would not be able to submit our schedule on Monday," the contractor said. Vice-Chancellor Prof AAMS Arefin Siddique last night told The Daily Star they would take up all necessary security measures to ensure safe dropping of schedule today. Campus sources said some former and incumbent BCL leaders and Juba League leaders directly negotiated a development work worth Tk 24 crore in the last week of February on the DU campus.
