Bangladesh Chhatra Union Forms New Convening Committee at SUST
Bangladesh Chhatra Union has formed a new 11-member convening committee at Shahjalal University of Science and Technology. Following the announcement, the student organization held a campus procession.
An 11-member convening committee for the Bangladesh Chhatra Union Shahjalal University of Science and Technology (SUST) parliament has officially been formed. The organizational development took place on September 10, 2026, at the Shahjalal University of Science and Technology campus, drawing attention within the university's student political landscape.
Under the newly established leadership structure, Naznin Liza has been appointed as the convenor of the SUST parliament committee. Working alongside her in the leadership team, Zubayer Ahmed Jewel has officially taken on the role of joint-convenor for the committee.
The announcement of the new convening committee was swiftly followed by a demonstration on campus. True to their organizational practices, the student group held a campus procession immediately after the committee was declared to mark the occasion.
Addressing the context of the committee's rollout, Naznin Liza explained the decision to keep certain members out of the public eye during the initial announcement. She noted that given the current circumstances, the remaining four members are not being brought into the public view just yet. She elaborated on the reasoning by pointing out that when the committee was announced on Wednesday night, a female comrade faced severe verbal abuse. While that individual might endure it, bringing new members forward prematurely could discourage them. Liza added that the remaining members will be introduced publicly only when they are fully committed to the organization despite facing potential backlash.
Liza further elaborated on the significance of the post-announcement rally as a core organizational practice. She stated that whenever a committee is formed, they carry out a procession in memory of their martyrs. This tradition ensures that newcomers understand that there are no financial privileges or perks to be found here, and that they must repay the blood debt of their martyrs, describing it as a kind of unwritten tradition for the organization.
