Following the march, a section of the protesters blocked the Chashara roundabout while another group assembled in front of the city's Press Club.
Students from Government Tolaram College, Narayanganj Law College, Narayanganj College, and RP Saha University, among other institutions, participated in the protest.
Around 50 police officers entered the Chashara roundabout around 12pm.
At this time, the students chanted "Bhua, Bhua" (fake, fake) at the police officers. The police silently positioned themselves in the alley beside Sonali Bank at Chashara.
Simultaneously, when an additional superintendent of police arrived in a vehicle, the students forced him to get out of the car.
