In 2011, Dhaka University Alumni Association of New England (Duane) was founded by a number of former students of Dhaka University in Boston. Several years ago, after running this organization called Duane, the members got involved in a leadership conflict. Complaints are exchanged between the two groups. Allegations of irregularities, arbitrariness and abuse of power arose with Duane’s committee. To avoid conflict, the members of this committee formed a new organization called Association of Dhaka University Alumni of the Northeast (Aduane).
