History
editThe student movement emerged mainly from the anti-Ershad movement. The then-president of the organization, Faizul Hakim, was one of the leaders of the anti-authoritarian movement. The party participated in various movements, including the anti-authoritarian movement, the 92 movement demanding justice for Ghulam Azam, the 'anti-rape movement' in Jahangirnagar and Dhaka University, the movement against police torture at Samsunnahar Hall of Dhaka University, the tree protection movement in Osmani Udyan, the 'coal mine' movement in Phulbari, the anti-Tipaimukh Barrage movement, the student movement of August 20-22, the movement against the cancellation of Rampal Thermal Power Station, and the movement against the 'Ticfa' agreement.[3]
A 13-member central executive committee of Bangladesh Students' Federation was formed through the 13th central council on 30 and 31 March 2022 with Mashiur Rahman Khan Richard as president, Sadiq Reza as vice-president, Saikat Arif as general secretary, Ilias Zaman and Fatema Rahman Bithi as co-general secretaries.[4]
"The main theme of the organization is" "Education, Equality, Struggle, Progress." The student federation has been demanding a science-based education system in Bangladesh in the mother tongue. The 13th Central Conference of the Students' Federation was held for two days on 30 and 31 March 2022 to unite in the demand for a democratic education system and bribe-labour and corruption-free jobs for all for the purpose of national reconstruction and to build a formidable student movement to overthrow fascism.[5]
