The newly appointed principal of Yakub Tajul Women's Degree College in Kulaura, Moulvibazar, has been relieved. On Tuesday (August 13) at 10:30 p.m., College Governing Body President Soumya Pradeep Bhattacharya confirmed the dismissal of Sajal to this reporter.
He said that in view of the demands of the students, an emergency meeting of the governing body was called at the college at 8 p.m. on Tuesday.

In the meeting, principal Sipar Uddin Ahmed was dismissed in order to maintain peace and order on the college campus. At that time, Assistant Professor Shah Ghiyas Uddin, Head of the Department of Accountancy, was given the responsibility of acting principal.
College Governing Body members Md. Fazlul Haque, Monir Uddin Ahmed, Khaled Parvez Bux, and others were present in the meeting.

On August 11, from 10:00 a.m. to noon, the students held a protest march and rally by blocking the college campus and road for 4 hours, calling the principal, Sipar Uddin Ahmed, an opponent of the anti-discrimination student movement and a supporter of the dictatorial government. At one stage, they locked all the rooms and office rooms of the college. Later, all the students submitted a memorandum to the Upazila Nirbahi Officer demanding the resignation of Principal Sipar Uddin Ahmed with public signatures.

The teachers at the college also signed the memorandum, agreeing to the demands of the students. Hundreds of protesting students chanted slogans demanding the principal's resignation.
The students complained that Sipar Uddin Ahmad directly opposed the quota reform movement. He wrote in his personal Facebook post on July 18, "The quota movement has been robbed; the quota movement has been hijacked by BNP Jamaat." Besides being a teacher, he said after the Awami League rally in Kulaura on August 4, while giving a speech at the city station Choumuhani, that the government has accepted all the demands of the quota reform activists. Still, why this movement?

Even after accepting the demands, there were no students in the street movement; only thugs, conspirators, and arsonists were on the streets.
He also said that if Awami League leaders and activists at all levels take to the streets to resist our quota reform movement, then none of us will be found.
It should be noted that on July 8, Sipar Uddin Ahmed took charge as the principal of Yakub Tajul Women's Degree College. Before this, he served as the principal of Bhatera Degree College in 2017.

Besides teaching, he is also the mayor of Kulaura Municipality and joint general secretary of the Upazila Awami League.
