The Alumni of Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (Buet) has demanded the resignation of the vice-chancellor and an overhauling of the administration at the earliest.

Their demands also include a ban on organisation-based politics on the campus and expulsion of those involved in ragging students, capital punishment for the killers, expulsion of all the accused from the university, expulsion of all the identified killers from Buet for life, trial of the Abrar murder case at a speedy tribunal, and safeguarding the campus and the dormitories at all times.
