The renovation and reopening of the DUCSU archive ignited sharp backlash when images of Pakistan’s founder, Muhammad Ali Jinnah, were displayed while standalone portraits of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman were left out. Student organisations strongly protested the decision, stating that displaying Jinnah—who proclaimed Urdu as the sole state language in 1948 - disrespected the legacy of both the 1952 Language Movement and the 1971 Liberation War. Driven by these concerns, Muhammad Abu Tayab (Habilder), a fourth-year Urdu student from the 2001–02 session and a former candidate in the last DUCSU election, vandalized the exhibit by breaking Jinnah's framed photograph, extracting it, and tearing it apart.

Today is the 2nd death anniversary of Tofazzal Hossain, who was killed by the students on suspicion of stealing and beaten with stumps in rounds in the guest room of Fazlul Huq Muslim Hall (FH Hall) at Dhaka University on September 18, 2024.

I think I have just discovered a photograph of "Tofazzal Hossain" (L) in my archive from 2023, who was killed by the students on suspicion of stealing and beaten with stumps in rounds in the guest room of Fazlul Huq Muslim Hall (FH Hall) at Dhaka University on September 18, 2024.
