Dhaka, Oct 27
At least 50 students were injured in Bangladesh early on Monday following a violent clash between students of Daffodil International University and City University in the Ashulia area of Dhaka district, according to local media reports.
Reports suggest that repeated attacks, vandalism, and arson caused major damage, with City University bearing the brunt. The students accused the law enforcement agencies of failing to provide assistance amid the unrest.
Citing witnesses, Bangladeshi daily Dhaka Tribune reported that tensions began on Sunday evening when a City University student spat from his motorcycle, accidentally hitting a Daffodil student and sparking an argument between students of both universities.
Following the incident, around 40–50 City University students armed with local weapons and bricks attacked and vandalised a residence of Daffodil University students.
