Neglected DU students
It's a story. Once, there was a building in Jagannath Hall of Dhaka University. It was almost broken. Students found their lives at risk. But, as students are not human beings, so, they didn't have any choice and got themselves used to living in such a building. Some students, out of fear, made a mistake: they demanded security of their lives, and wanted the DU administration to repair the worn out building. But, the DU administration didn't pay heed to the misguided students; they didn't repair it.
One day, on a rainy night, that building broke down causing death of a large number of students. Now, there stands a memorial building named 'October Smriti Bhaban'.
Now, there are three more buildings, all of which are waiting to crash down. Nearly one year ago, after a fearful night (just like the recent one of earthquake), students started movement against the whimsical administration of the university, and then some experts were hired to assess the situation, and they were made to lie before the students - 'there is no risk and everything is just okay'.
We live here without our parents, our guardians. And, you - teachers of Dhaka University - were supposed to be our parents, our guardians here, but, you failed, Sir! ... Parents or guardians willingly take care of children, they even risk their own lives for children. But you, forgive me for telling the bitter truth - never take any care of us in any sense: we have to pay money for 'strange' and unjust reasons - you never care; we have to waste important years of our youth, our lives for so-called session-jam, we have to live in a terribly unhealthy environment, we have to eat foods not suitable for even dogs, we have to live in buildings that can collapse any time, you never care.
If another earthquake strikes (and the possibility is very high), and if the same thing happens that happened years ago, some new memorial buildings will be built again; but, what'll happen to the lost lives? Who will answer my question?
