Woes of a student
Tanmoy Bhattcharjee, English Department, BRAC University.
Today our main problem is flood. Bangladesh is sinking under water. According to weather forecasts, the floods will further worsen. Most of the districts in North Bengal are under water. I believe that the floods have surpassed the deluges of 1988 and '98 in severity. Dhaka city is one the flood-effected areas. The eastern side of the city is the worst affected. If we look at the areas beside Bishawa Road like Badda (East West and Middle), Natun Bazar, Kuril, Khilgaon, Bashundhara, Rampura, Kalachandpur, Kamalapur etc, we get a grim picture of floods. Millions of people are suffering. I am a student of BRAC University and sometimes it is difficult for me to attend the classes. I am now living with my parents in a four-storied building, because our own home is under water. The sad news is that the ground floor of that building has gone under water . I am now using boat for travelling . Sometimes our lecturers fail to realise our predicament. We would be much obliged if the university authorities kindly close it, considering the flood situation . It can be reopened as soon as the flood water recedes.
