Revolutionary Students Unity or Biplobi Chhatro Moitry, is an independent secular students' organization for student rights, while Students Unity of Bangladesh or Bangladesh Chhatro Moitry is the independent student organization . The organisation was founded in 1980 through the unification of four student movements: Jatio Chhatra Andolan, Purbo Bangla Chhatra Union, Jatio Chhatra Dal and Jatio Chhatra Dal. It originally followed the pro-Peking students union stream, but its political theory has changed over the years. It had a significant role during most of the recent progressive movements, notably the anti-Ershad people's movement and anti-Razakar movement under Jahanara Imam.
