The Independent Students Unity panel contesting the Dhaka University Central Students' Union (DUCSU) election has announced an 11-point manifesto, vowing to make the campus fren of “partisanship and politicisation”.

The panel also pledges to make all academic resources accessible for visually impaired and differently-abled students.

They have proposed including major indigenous cultural festivals in the university’s academic calendar as official holidays.

The manifesto was unveiled on Tuesday afternoon at a press conference held at Madhur Canteen on the Dhaka University campus. 

Umama Fatema, the panel’s candidate for vice president (VP), announced the 11-point agenda.
