Sad, indeed
It is very sad indeed to see reports of violence on public university campuses in the country. A university is not merely an educational institute where students go to attend lectures. It is a learning hub where young minds are nurtured and trained to make qualified individuals- something very important for the development of a nation in the global stage. It is very disheartening to see the learning environment of prestigious institutions like DU and RU being damaged through on-campus violence by groups of students affiliated with different political parties. There is a limit to which responsible citizens of a country can tolerate such nonsense, and I believe it is about time the government started taking some serious action against the culprits.
I offer my deepest condolences to the family of the murdered student, and request our honourable PM to take the necessary steps to ensure that DU, once called the "Oxford of the East", and those other universities in the country can regain their past glory.
