Students of Jagannath University (JnU) held a victory march following the resignation of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. The march was organized by the Anti-Discrimination Student Movement on Tuesday at 3 PM. Students started the procession from the university’s Kathaltola area and marched around Bahadur Shah Park.

Ivan Tahseeb, one of the coordinators of the movement, expressed his feelings about the victory, saying, "We have won after many sacrifices. Our fellow, Abu Saeed, has lost his charm, but the resignation has brought joy to people across the country."

However, Ivan also highlighted ongoing concerns, stating, "Despite our victory, minorities are still being attacked across the country. Attempts are being made to discredit our movement. We need to stay vigilant."

Another coordinator, Masud Rana, also spoke during the march. He addressed the challenges faced by the students, saying, "Those who took screenshots of our Facebook posts and threatened us will not be welcomed at Jagannath University. They are criminals and will face justice. Hasina's accomplices will be tried."

The event reflects the students' determination to continue their fight against discrimination and to hold those responsible for threats and violence accountable.
