Khairul Alam, a former student of North South University (NSU) and a Guest worker of the NSU Career and Placement Center (CPC), was injured on August 5 while participating in the non-cooperation movement called by the anti-discrimination student movement. He is on life support due to bleeding in the brain as well as lung failure. Khairul has been fighting for his life for the last seven days at a private hospital in the capital. His family is spending days in turmoil.
NSU authority is constantly monitoring Khairul’s treatment. Vice-Chancellor Atiqul Islam expressed his concern and support, saying, “We are shocked and worried about the incident. We have already provided financial assistance, and the university will take full responsibility for his treatment. Our thoughts and prayers are with him, and we hope he can recover and return to his work soon”
