Another clash broke out between students of Dhaka College and City College in the capital’s New Market area on Thursday (August 21) afternoon. Several students from both sides were reportedly injured. Similar clashes between students of these two institutions have occurred multiple times in the past. The Deputy Commissioner (DC) of DMP’s Ramna Division, Md. Masud Alam, has called for a permanent solution to this recurring issue.
Speaking to journalists at the scene on Thursday afternoon, Masud Alam said, “Such incidents happen frequently. Even minor issues spark tension between these two colleges. We will discuss this with the principals of both colleges. This time, we want to identify the root cause. These clashes cause suffering to the general public. When students confront each other, any kind of incident can occur. We want a permanent solution to this problem.”
