Photographs of Muhammad Ali Jinnah, founder of Pakistan, and Ghulam Azam, a controversial Jamaat-e-Islami leader, have been positioned on the floor at the entrance to the DUCSU office at Dhaka University. The images have been placed in a manner that students passing through the entrance would walk over them. The placement appears designed to make a political statement, reflecting broader ideological disputes within the university community. The incident highlights continuing divisions among student groups on campus regarding historical and political figures. University authorities have not yet issued an official statement regarding the matter. The DUCSU building serves as the headquarters for student union activities and is a focal point of student activism on the Dhaka University campus.
