BNP-Jamaat-affiliated teachers’ organization Sada Dal (White Panel) of Dhaka University has demanded the trial of DU Sociology Department teacher Dr. Zeenat Huda, former general secretary of Dhaka Uni-versity Teachers’ Association.
The demand came in a statement signed by the organization’s convener, Professor Dr. Morshed Hasan Khan, and joint conveners, Professor Dr. Abdus Salam and Professor Dr. Abul Kalam Sarker, on Sun-day.
In the statement, the leaders said, “We observe with anger that Dr. Zeenat Huda, who was rejected by the Dhaka University teachers’ community for taking a stance against students and people in the 2024 anti-discrimination movement, unconditionally supporting the fascist Sheikh Hasina and her government, and encouraging genocide, is continuing to issue statements and remarks on various issues using the name of the DU Teachers’ Association.”
On behalf of Sada Dal, the nationalist teachers’ organization of Dhaka University, we strongly condemn and protest such malicious activities by Dr. Zeenat Huda, who is a collaborator of fascists and has been rejected by DU students and teachers, said the statement.
The leaders of the pael stated that since Dr. Zeenat has been rejected by the respected teachers of the uni-versity and the DU Teachers’ Association’s executive committee has already expired, she is no longer the general secretary of the teachers’ association.
By issuing statements and remarks under the title of general secretary, she is attempting to destabilize the university and make the administration controversial, according to Sada Dal.
Sada Dal strongly demands that the government immediately arrest and bring Dr. Zeenat under trial for her defamatory statements against students in the anti-discrimination movement, negative remarks, oppo-sition to the mass uprising, and for attending Ghonobhaban as a representative of the teachers’ association to support the genocide of the murderer Sheikh Hasina.
Zeenat Huda belongs to the Neel Dal (Blue Panel), Awami League backed teacher’s organisation, of the university. After supporting autocracy against the students’ mass uprising, she was rejected by the stu-dents after August 5.
