'Cancel unified edn system'
Bdnews, Dhaka
Different student organisations yesterday demanded immediate cancellation of 'unified education system' to be introduced at the secondary level from January. The Santrash O Sampra-diyeekata Barodhi Chhatra Jote, an alliance AL's student wing BCL and six other left leaning student bodies, made the demand at a rally in front of Aparayeo Bangla on the Dhaka University campus. The student leaders at the rally said the government intends to introduce the 'so called' unified education to destroy the country's education system in a planned way. BCL General Secretary Nazrul Islam Babu said the government is cheating the people in the name of 'unified education' through only changing secondary level education and keeping English medium and madrasa education systems out of its purview. Presided over by Pro-JSD BCL President Shariful Kabir Shwapan, the rally was also addressed by BCL leaders -- Saifuzzaman Shekhor, Rafiqul Islam Kotwal, Baloram Poddar, Marufa Aktar Popy, Mostak Hossain, Lutfar Nahar Munni, and Ali Ahsan Tarun. Earlier, the Jote also brought out a procession on the campus. Samajtantrik Chhatra Front, a left leaning student body, also staged a demonstration on the campus on the same demand.
