Dhaka University incident

I was shocked to see the unfortunate clash on DU campus. Ultimately, the protests from the students and teachers sparked a clash between the police and the students and hence the campus turned into a battlefield.
But I must say that those responsible for the whole thing must be reprimanded for their unnecessary attack on the students.

The “one voice” of thousands of DU students has reminded us that this university is the centre point of all historic events against injustice from the Language Movement in 1952 to fall of dictatorship in 1990.
As it had happened inside Dhaka University, it triggered protests and demonstrations, which have made headlines in all print and electronic media. There are many such incidents happening across the country.
People appreciate the CTG for its strong stand against political power abusers. The CTG will lose public support if it fails to handle this sensitive issue efficiently.

Being a former student of the country's premier university and an eyewitness to Tuesday's barbaric and heinous police action on the students of Dhaka University, I have been completely dumbfounded. Who are the victims of this untoward incident? Undoubtedly, the general students pursuing higher education with the hard-earned money of their guardians.
Without any hesitation I would like to say that those responsible for the incident should be identified and given exemplary punishment. Some vested groups always lie in ambush to take advantage of such situations, but the students pay a high price.
I urge the venerable chief adviser of the caretaker government to take the initiative to bring back normalcy on the campus.
