The Bangladesh Chhatra League (Bengali: বাংলাদেশ ছাত্রলীগ; abbr. BCL), formerly known as the East Pakistan Student League, is a students' political organisation in Bangladesh, founded by Sheikh Mujibur Rahman on 4 January 1948. BCL is reportedly the student wing of the Bangladesh Awami League.

Current president Rezwanul Huq Chowdhury Shovon was elected on 26 July 2015 at the National Conference of BCL. Golam Rabbani is the Chhatra League's current elected general secretary.

On 4 January 1948, the East Pakistan Muslim Chhatra League was established by Sheikh Mujibur Rahman at a meeting in Fazlul Huq Hall at the University of Dhaka. The organisation's name was later changed to the Bangladesh Chhatra League. Naeemuddin Ahmed was the first convener of BCL, while Khalek Newaz Khan was the founder general secretary of the Chhatra League.
