Pro-Vice-Chancellor (Administration) Mohammed Almujaddade Alfasane confirmed the matter to Agamir Somoy on Tuesday.
Vice-Chancellor (VC) ABM Obaidul Islam decided the matter during a syndicate meeting held on Monday.
Almujaddade told Agamir Somoy that all faculty members of the Bengali Department submitted a written complaint against Tashrik. In the complaint, the teachers expressed their unwillingness to participate in any academic activities with him and demanded his dismissal from his post.
The allegations under investigation include damaging the reputation of the teaching community by publishing various content on Facebook and becoming a controversial figure to students.
Moreover, the committee will investigate claims that the teacher refused to grant MPhil and PhD degrees without the payment of money.
Tashrik has not yet given a statement regarding the accusations.
