At Begum Rokeya University and Carmichael College in Rangpur, murals of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman were demolished. Around 10:00 PM, leaders and activists of the anti-discrimination student movement destroyed the murals at these institutions.

In Mymensingh city, members of the anti-discrimination student movement started vandalizing Sheikh Mujib’s mural near the Circuit House field. The act began around 11:30 PM using hammers and crowbars.

However, no legal action was seen being taken during these incidents of vandalism, looting, and destruction of property.
