Hundreds of students from Dhaka University (DU) demonstrated on the campus on Monday to protest the persistent oppression and mass killings of Rohingya minorities in Myanmar.

Around 300-400 DU students of gathered at Raju Memorial Monument around 11am with placards and festoons and urged the United Nation and other global human rights bodies to force the Myanmar government to stop the mass killing and violence against the Rohingya people.

The protesters also demanded Myanmar leader Aung San Suu Kyi be stripped of her Nobel Peace Prize since she failed to stop the violence against the Rohingyas of Rakhine state.

The students also threatened to march toward Myanmar embassy in Dhaka if the state-sponsored killings continued.
