The 'Shekribi Oikka Parishad', an united forum of all the associations including Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University Teachers' Association has demanded appointment of Vice Chancellor at SAU from among the serving teachers of Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University (SAU), Dhaka. On June 22, the Parishad brought out a silent procession to press home realise their just demand. It may be indicated here that there are a number of highly qualified and competent senior Professors at SAU who have the eligibility to become vice chancellor.

Meanwhile the Oikka Parishad said in a handout that if their demand is not met by June 26, 2008, the concerned members of the SAU Oikka Parishad will tender their resignation from their respective additional charges after holding a meeting on the same day.

It is sincerely expected that the honorable Chancellor of SAU and Chief Adviser of the Caretaker Government will be pleased to take appropriate action in the greater interest of SAU.
