Pabna, Sept 18 (V7N) – Students of Pabna Polytechnic Institute staged a protest and blocked the highway as part of a nationwide program organized by the Technical Students’ Movement, Bangladesh.

The demonstration began at 11:00 a.m. on Wednesday, with a rally from the institute proceeding via Singa Bypass to the central bus terminal, where students obstructed traffic and held a sit-in.

During the program, speeches were delivered by central representatives Helal Ahmed (Shuvo) and Sumaiya Khatun, along with central committee members Imam Uddin Sad, Yasin Arafat Nirab, and Helal Ahmed. After several hours of road blockage, the students dispersed.

The protest demanded action against public threats of violence toward diploma engineers, rejection of the unrecognized committee formed to address professional issues in the engineering sector, and dismissal of the government’s denial of three unreasonable demands put forth by degree engineers.
