Before the fall of the Awami League (AL) government on 5 August, the BU Chhatra Dal unit could not be active on campus due to the influence of the Bangladesh Chhatra League, the student wing of AL.
Since 5 August, leaders of the expired Chhatra Dal committee have been engaged in several controversial activities, including occupying rooms in the dormitories and sheltering Chhatra League activists, which led to heavy criticism from students.
Following the backlash, the Chhatra Dal central committee announced the dissolution of the expired BU unit.
The first committee of the BU Chhatra Dal unit was formed in 2016. The full committee was announced in 2021 with Reza Sharif as its president and Hasan Al Hasib as general secretary.
