14. Killing of students
The Non-co-operation movement was organised under the banner of "Independent Bangladesh
Students Movement Council" from Jahrul Hoque hall of Dhaka University. The first target of
Operation Searchlight was this student hall. By 25 March all leaders of Chhatra League had left the
hall. According to Professor Dr. K.M. Munim around 200 students were killed at this dorm.
After 12 o'clock the army entered Jagannath Hall and initially attacked the hall with mortar and
began non-stop firing. They entered through north and south gate and killed students non-selectively
from each room. Around 34 students were killed at that time. Some students of Jagannath Hall were
resident of Ramna Kali Bari. So, around 5–6 were killed there. Among them only the name of
Ramonimohon Bhattacharjee is known. Many guests of students who were at those dorms were also
killed. Including Helal of Bhairab college, Babul Paul of Bajitpur College, Baddruddojha of Jagannath
Hall, Jibon Sarkar, Mostaq, Bacchu and Amar of Netrokona. Archer Blood, the then consul general of
US at Dhaka, wrote in his book The Cruel Birth of Bangladesh, "Fire was started at Rokeya Hall (girls'
dormitory) and, when the students tried to escape, the military started firing. From the
conversationof military control room and army unit 88, a total of 300 students death was estimated."

16. Attack at girls' dormitory
Archer K. Blood the then consul general of US at Dhaka wrote in his book The Cruel Birth of Bangladesh,
"Fire was started at Rokeya Hall (girls' dormitory) and, when the students tried to escape, the military started
firing... On 10 November 1971 some armed criminals attacked Rokeya Hall and kept 30 girls confined for two
hours. They also attacked Provost House”. In 1971 there were two strong military establishments near
Rokeya hall, it was impossible to attack university Girls' Hostel without their knowledge for two hours.
Excerpts from Genocide in Bangladesh by Kalyan Chaudhury, pp 157–158: "...Some army officer raided
Rokeya Hall on 7 October 1971. Accompanied by five soldiers, Major Aslam had first visited the hostel on 3
October and asked the superintendent to supply some girls who could sing and dance at a function to be held
In Tejgaon Cantonment. The superintendent told him that most of the girls had left the hostel after the
disturbances and only 40 students were residing but as a superintendent of a girls' hostel she should not
allow them to go to the cantonment for this purpose. Dissatisfied, Major Aslam went away. Soon after the
superintendent informed a higher army officer in the cantonment, over the telephone, of the Major' s mission.
However, on 7 October at about 8 pm. Major Aslam and his men raided the hostel. The soldiers broke open
the doors, dragged the girls out and stripped them before raping and torturing them in front of the helpless
superintendent. The entire thing was done so openly without any provocation, that even the Karachi-based
newspaper, Dawn, had to publish the story, violating censorship by the military authorities. In seven days after
liberation about 300 girls were recovered from different places around Dacca where they had been taken .

17. Academic activities at 1971
Governor Tikka Khan ordered department heads to join work from 21 April and the other teachers on 1
June. According to his order, classes must be started from 2 August. All the dormitories were cleaned to
remove any signs of destruction to show a quite fine educational environment at the university to the
international communities. All exams were postponed due to the national crisis. Attendance in the class was
to minute at that period. Interestingly, as the forces of war increased until September, attendance
in the classes also increased. As many students had joined the Mukti Bahini (liberation force), they blasted
hand grenades near the university and quickly entered classes. This is why the army failed to arrest any one.
Massacre on 14 December 1971
In December, it became clear to the Pakistan government that it would lose the war. When Dhaka University
reopened on 2 July 1971, teachers who collaborated with the Pakistani army gathered at Nawab Abdul Gani
Road to build up a list of intellectuals who supported the Independence movement. Until then, the Pakistan
Army secretly trained a group of Pakistan-supporting madrasa, college and university students. This group
was named Al Badar. At the verge of the December war Al-Badar members came out and selectively killed
Bengali professors, doctors, engineers and many other intellectuals. Many of those killed were teachers of
Dhaka University.
