The protesters said students who participated in the July uprising were not included in the committee.
They also claimed that a group with vested interest has formed the "farcical" pocket committee with some infiltrators who benefited after 5 August and some allies of the Awami League.
The students said if a decision is not taken quickly on this issue, they will launch a tougher movement.
