From the beginning of March, student gatherings were organized daily at the Central Shaheed Minar, where the ongoing events and political circumstances were briefed.
At the University of Dhaka's central field, Students' Union initiated military drills and weapons training, including handling dummy rifles, starting each morning.
Separate brigades were formed in the names of the martyrs and revolutionaries, each taking political responsibilities alongside receiving military training, including guerrilla warfare.
On the night of March 25, 1971, leaders of the Dhaka University Unit of Students' Union, including Aajim and Shushil, along with several others, sacrificed their lives in the gunfire of the Pakistani forces.
After the commencement of the Liberation War, this was the first kind of press conference in favor of Bangladesh, where detailed descriptions of the atrocities and genocide by the Pakistani military were provided.
Subsequently, student and youth organizations worldwide swiftly started expressing support for Bangladesh's independence and the Liberation War, initiating widespread solidarity.

In this battle, 9 guerrilla fighters, including Students' Union leader Nizamuddin Azad, Sirajul Monir, and Shahidullah Saud, became martyrs.
