Black Shadow of Student Politics



I stopped writing in the dailies a couple of years back. I determined myself not to speak until the non political, non democratic government goes to end. 2008 election brought a bunch of hope as the victory of democracy lifted up. I waited to observe the tactics of the newly instated government by Awami League led grand alliance. It has been a year since a popular print media pointed at the faults and uncontrolled acts of the Bangladesh Chatra League, the students’ wing of the ruling party. What the Prime Minister and the cabinet could do if someone in a big party does wrong? Should they just punish them and let the faults go and create another mischief? Is there any other way of action that a ruler can take against such chaos in the name of STUDENT POLITICS? These are the common questions traveling across the minds of general people in Bangladesh due to the incidents at Dhaka University. The Dhaka University used to be called as the Oxford of the East. But when? By Whom? And for What reason? Yes, it was. This is the institution, where the history of Bangladesh had been started, the great movement for language followed by the formation of an independent state “Bangladesh” after a bloody war of liberation. The teachers, students of this institute led the first protest against chaos, tyranny and dictatorships. I remember it was in early 2006 when I was requested by the DU students to assist them in protesting the Asia Energy at Fulbari Coal Mining Land. I promised to assist them, and I wrote an article for their support in the Daily Star. The inspiration I had to write was actually from their patriotism at all. I bow down for such great spirits of students. I am sorry and hart today from the students from the same institution. They fought themselves and their clash killed one of their brothers Abu Bakar Siddik. I often express my wish if I could have my times back and study at the Dhaka University, though I am a graduate from the world famous University of London. But after the death of a merit, I feel that I could not bear such a shame on my certificates, if I were a graduate from Dhaka University. These are a few feelings after seeing the news about the death of Abu Bakar Siddik. May I ask the University, can you return the boy, came into you to learn? Can you return the existence of hope of a poor mother as her son would change the poverty of her family? Can you produce any more Abu Bakar Siddik for her? You can not. Because you have become infertile to produce glory. This is the reason; the world has forgotten to call you the Oxford of the East. No tears, no human chains, no protests can bring Abu Bakars back. It’s time to change.It’s time to eliminate the black shadow of student politics. Such politics should be banned, otherwise one day Bangladesh will become a merit free disabled national as planned by the War Criminals in 1971 by killing the meritorious professionals of the country.
