Biased recruitment at DU

A report in The Daily Star about DU recruitment has drawn my attention. The recent hide and seek and the unwarranted delay in the selection process of DU has proved that most things are politically oriented. Being a student of this highest seat of learning it becomes difficult for me to understand when totally unqualified students are securing first position topping the good students. It is not happening in one but in most of the departments. What I have seen is that one of my friends who secured excellent CGPA in BBA was not able to answer a single question in the class even for a single day. How has he obtained such good result?

No VC is fair as they get the appointment through their political affiliation rather than their quality. If the most qualified persons in research and administration are appointed to positions of responsibility, then we will get the benefits. Today, DU has become a den of corruption, nasty politics, hub of many nefarious activities. We all should voice our demand to the DU to come out of the impasse as our brothers, sons, and daughters or near and dear ones are studying and will continue to do so in this institution. My I request to the concerned authority is that-please don't vitiate the environment of the university again and again through political recruitment.
