Two new Pro-Vice Chancellors of Dhaka University (DU) Professor Shahid Akter Hossain and Professor Nasrin Ahmed took over their charges on Saturday noon. Besides, Dr Kamal Uddin also took over as treasurer of DU.
Former pro-VC of DU Dr. Harun-or-Rashid & former treasurer Dr Mizanur Rahman handed over charge formally to the two pro-VCs & to Kamal Uddin respectively at their office at 12:30pm.
Earlier, President M Zillur Rahman, also Chancellor of the university appointed them on June 6 for Dhaka University (DU). Prof Nasreen Ahmad of Geography & Environment Department and Dr Shahid Akhter of Soil Science Department appointed as DU`s Pro-Vice Chancellors. Besides, Prof Kamal Uddin of International Business department made Treasurer of the university.
Their appointments came a day after resignation of Pro-VC Prof Harun-or Rashid and Treasurer Prof Mizanur Rahman from their respective posts on Tuesday. The resignations came weeks after the pro-government blue panel lost in the university syndicate election to the opposition-backed white panel. The election disaster is widely blamed on conflicts between the Pro-VC, the treasurer and VC Professor AAMS Arefin Siddique on different issues.
