Students studying at a German university in Bangladesh have demanded that student visas be brought under emergency and special services during the lockdown.

They made the demand at a press conference at the Sagar-Runi auditorium of the Dhaka Reporters' Unity on Monday (May 3rd).

On behalf of the students at the press conference, a student of OTH Ambergen Weiden University in Germany. Nazim Uddin said that more than a thousand students are studying in different universities of Germany. We are now taking classes online because of the Corona situation. We have been informed by letters from various universities in Germany that we have to go to our own university by August this year to take part in classes directly next semester.

"We have to solve all the problems within this period," he said. Otherwise we will be forced to go to the movement. We will do everything we have to do to realize the demand. We have also given a memorandum to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
