Will the prime minister keep her word?
Jagannath University College was declared a complete university in 1995 by the then prime minister Begum Khaleda Zia. Since then, eight years has past but her declaration has not been implemented. As a result, the long cherished desire of thirty-five thousand students of Jagannath University College to study in their own Jagannath University has not turned into reality.
In the year 2001, Begum Khaleda Zia came back to power again and since then have accomplished many works she had declared in the year 1995. But in the case of Jagannath University College, she has not taken any necessary steps yet. We don't know what is the reason of such discrimination?
Under such circumstances, we are requesting the prime minister to look into the matter and take immediate steps for the implementation of Jagannath University within the year 2003.
