Politics in university halls

When a student hailing from other places than Dhaka enrols in a university like DU, he feels enthusiastic and motivated. But soon, all his hopes and expectations start fading away, when he has to face the politics prevailing in the university halls. If a first-year student wants a seat in a DU hall, he has to attend all the political programmes of the ruling party's student wing to show his loyalty and it greatly hampers his academic activities. Sometimes political 'boro bhais' even force the juniors to engage in clashes between rival parties. I urge the political parties to take stern actions against this practice. We come to the highest academic institution to learn, not to become a political cadre.
