The distinguished Professor Syed Manzoorul Islam passed away at the age of 74 at a hospital in the capital at around 5:15 PM today. The renowned writer and beloved member of our academic community had been fighting for his life due to cardiac arrest, which later led to pneumonia as well.
His service for the ULAB community will be unmatched as he served the ULAB's Department of English & Humanities with dignity and pride, making some significant contributions to Bangladeshi literary criticism and creative writing.
His body will be taken to the Shaheed Minar tomorrow on the 11th of October at around 11 AM, for his friends, colleagues, and well-wishers to pay their last respects. Later, he will be buried in the Budhhijibi Graveyard in Mirpur.
During this time of grief, ULAB remembers his work, legacy, and contributions to the country, and honors his life. Prayers & thoughts for the great man. May he rest well.
