The central committee of Bangladesh Chhatra League (BCL) formed a two-member committee to investigate the recent controversy of the JnU Chhatra League, including alleged question paper leaks, tender business, and extortion of the unit Chhatra League.
On Thursday, the information was circulated in a press release signed by BCL Office Secretary Meftahul Islam Panth.
According to the press release, the probe body includes Vice President Tahsan Ahmed Rasel and Joint General Secretary Abdullah Hil Bari of the central body of BCL. The committee has been directed to submit the investigation report to the organisation's office cell within the next 7 days.
Meanwhile, Awami League Joint General Secretary Bahauddin Nashim said that since the central leaders of the Chhatra League have learned about the matter, they will investigate and take action. The claim must be verified. If there is truth, action must be taken against the Chhatra League leader who did it.
He also said, "No party or organisation is responsible for an individual's fault. If there is a crime, it is his fault. No Chhatra League leader can ever be associated with the tender trade. The Chhatra League will do student politics. We will do politics as per the rules."
Earlier, SM Akter Hossain, general secretary of Jagannath University Chhatra League, was accused of leaking medical question papers in the messenger. The other allegations against the JnU unit are: failure to form a full-fledged committee in two and a half years; keeping control of all tenders at Jagannath University under the president Ibrahim Farazi and general secretary Akter Hossain; and extortion at Sumona Hospital in the Sadarghat area.
