Lost glory of Dhaka University
That the university, which imparts ethics, morality, justice, honesty and humanity plays an important role in building the nation needs no telling. And Dhaka University is no exception to this. It contributed greatly to the Language Movement in 1952, in the Liberation War, the fall of autocratic regimes, the restoration of democracy in 1991 etc. At the same time, it produced world famous scholars scientists, litterateurs, for which tt is called the Oxford of the East. But some recent incidents- the murder of a private medical college student, the sexual harassment of female students, the fake students in various departments, leakage of question papers, the delay in publishing results, session jams, and the recent extortion in a hall have tarnished the image of the university.
As the teachers and students of this institution are the conscience of the nation, they should make all out concerted efforts to bring back the lost glory of this institution.
