Eid Card Controversy
RAKSU GS Ammar Sparks Debate with Political Photo Post
Salahuddin Ammar, General Secretary (GS) of the Rajshahi University Central Students’ Union (RAKSU), has once again drawn attention by sharing a unique Eid photocard on social media. Featuring images of top leaders from four political parties, the card—posted on Facebook—has placed him at the center of discussion at the beginning of the last days of Ramadan, alongside Eid greetings.
In a post accompanying the photocard on his Facebook account on Thursday night, March 19, Ammar wrote, “If these four minds ever come together, only then will revolution be possible.” The card was circulated on behalf of peace-loving citizens of the country.
Regarding his political identity, Ammar wrote, “Shibir says I am Chhatra Shakti, Chhatra Shakti says I am Shibir, the party says I am Shibir. In reality, I am a follower of Yusuf Sarkar. And the greatest success of my life is that no one has labeled me as Shahbaghi or leftist—Alhamdulillah.”
At the end of the post, he extended Eid greetings, saying “Eid Mubarak.” Many users have also been resharing the photocard by replacing Ammar’s image with their own.
However, as the names of the four individuals featured in the post were not explicitly mentioned, the matter has triggered widespread discussion and criticism on social media.
