19 pupils disciplined, 2 dismissed from CVASU due to ragging misconducts
In a significant move to maintain discipline and ensure student safety, the Chattogram Veterinary and Animal Sciences University (CVASU) has taken disciplinary actions against 19 students for their involvement in ragging incidents. The decisions were made following the 13th meeting of the Student Discipline Committee, chaired by the Vice-Chancellor Professor Dr. Mohammad Lutfor Rahman, on June 29, 2025 [1].
The committee reviewed several cases of ragging, including serious incidents that occurred on August 1 and November 19, 2023, at the university's Birampur campus [2]. Two students had their studentship permanently revoked due to their involvement in physically and mentally harassing junior students. Second-year student Mirza Mahfuz Hasan Akash was permanently expelled from the dormitory and fined Tk10,000, while another student, Md Jaber, was expelled from the hall for one year and fined Tk5,000 [1].
The committee's decisive actions demonstrate CVASU's commitment to addressing ragging and curbing physical and mental abuse among students. The disciplinary measures imposed include temporary and permanent expulsion from university dormitories and fines.
Here is a breakdown of the disciplinary actions:
