The copyright of Pipilika was requested by three students: Burhan Uddin, Ahmed Chisty, and Sudipta Kar via online application to the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at Shahjalal University of Science and Technology. But it was never resolved by the current executive committee of Pipilika, SUST. [5]
