Verification status 'partial': student_count (18,000+) from Wikipedia cross-checked against Banglapedia (15,384) — Wikipedia figure is more recent and reflects postgraduate enrolment; Banglapedia figure (15,384) appears to be from an earlier snapshot; used Wikipedia upper bound. Faculty count (394 teachers) is from Banglapedia, which also lists 473 officers and 326 employees. Annual budget not publicly verifiable from primary sources; set null. Pro-VC (Yeaqub Ali) and Treasurer (Jahangir Alam) were appointed December 2, 2024 under the interim government; their status under the new BNP-era VC (Motinur Rahman, took office May 15, 2026) has not yet been reported as changed. Registrar Manjurul Haque holds an acting designation as confirmed in multiple 2025-26 press releases. Campus is on the Kushtia-Jhenaidah border (175 acres at Shantidanga-Dulalpur); administratively in Kushtia district, Khulna division. The 271st syndicate (October 31, 2025) suspended 19 teachers, 11 officials, expelled 33 students over anti-July-uprising roles; these sanctions were subsequently reversed at the 273rd emergency syndicate (March 19, 2026). Note: 33 expelled students were not included in the reinstatement; only the 30 teachers/officials were reinstated. Former VC Nakib Nasrullah replaced interim VC Shaikh Abdus Salam (who resigned August 8, 2024 post-July uprising); the February-May 2026 window falls under the BNP government sworn in February 17, 2026.
