When monthly tuition fee for a Dhaka University student is Tk 25-30, a JnU student has to pay Tk 100 as tuition fee. Other fees of the university are also higher than any other public university in the country.In fact, JnU was not the only public university that got the approval during the last four-party alliances government under such agreement of running the university through its own income. Now the FINANCE MINISTRY is not interested to allot money for JNU , as a result a student have to pay
TK 20,000/- per semister .so it will be unbearable for a poor student to manage such a high amount of money .

Students have been arrested , girls have been beaten , boys have been tortured for saying about their legitimate rights . POLICE is working as a PETUA BAHINI ,they are using HAMOPCRACY to prevent the students . This not a political issue at all , if the descrimination is derived then the students will quit from the movement . UNTIL then the movement will continue ..........

Five other public universities i.e. Moulana Bhashani University of Science and Technology, Haji Mohammad Danesh Science & Technology University, Comilla University, Noakhali University and Jatiya Kabi Kazi Nazrul Islam University, are also functioning with the target that these universities will have to run by their own income in 10 years from the date of starting those universities.

However, both students and teachers of JnU want to have the privilege of getting government subsidies like the other public universities in the country do. From the beginning we have been demanding equal benefits like other public universities get, since the students don’t agree to pay higher fees,’ said vice-chancellor Prof Mezbah Uddin Ahmed .

University Grants Commission chairman Prof Nazrul Islam told, ‘We have already forwarded the application of JnU to the ministry for reviewing the act so that it can receive subsidy.’He also observed that laws of the public universities should be uniform.
