However, the protesting students are going to conduct a mass signature campaign from tomorrow and will continue it until their demands are fulfilled.  

Talking to this correspondent, DU proctor Prof Golam Rabbani said that the university authority has formed a 10-member investigation team to look into the issue and find out a proper solution to end this problem. 

Students put academic and administrative buildings under lock and key since Sunday demanding cancellation of affiliation of seven colleges with the university.  

Dhaka College, Eden Mohila College, Government Shaheed Suhrawardy College, Kabi Nazrul Government College, Begum Badrunnesa Government Mohila College, Mirpur Government Bangla College and Government Titumir College were affiliated with the Dhaka University on February 18 in 2017.
