The unrest began in the afternoon when students rallied across campus, chanting slogans such as "No place for student politics at KUET" and "We want a politics-free campus." They later gathered outside the Vice-Chancellor's residence, further escalating tensions. Around 3:45 pm, clashes broke out between the protesting students and Chhatra Dal members, leading to chaotic chases and counter-chases. Witnesses reported that some individuals were armed with machetes during the conflict. In response, the military was deployed to restore order.

The agitating students have placed a four-point demand, which includes permanently expelling 18 individuals they hold responsible for the attack and enforcing a complete ban on student politics.
