Student politics
I am a student of Dhaka University. Some days ago I came to know from one of my classmates what actually goes on in the name of student politics in the so-called "Oxford of the East". He is from Chittagong and wanted accommodation in a hall. But when he went to that hall a student leader told him that he must attend the political meetings, demonstrations even if there is a class or an exam. So he had no other option but to find accommodation in a mess.
Every year the largest chunk of the budget is allocated to the education sector. But what is the use of it if politics goes on like this? It seems the political leaders of our country do not even have the ability to understand the importance of education.
