Textbooks in black market: Exposing anarchy in education system
In this country of endless possibilities, only the bad things seem to happen effortlessly. It is often said that if you pay enough, you can even get tiger’s milk in this country. Needless to say, this saying is mostly used in a negative sense. But who would have thought that even textbooks would fall victim to the black market? Up until last year, students in Bangladesh were accustomed to receiving free textbooks on the first day of the academic year. But this time, things are different. Due to political changes, there have been delays in printing the textbooks, leaving uncertainty over when students will actually receive them.
Why the "No Page Tearing" graffiti is causing uproar?
Sometimes it feels as if the country has become like a land of anarchy. No one understands when, who, why, or how something happens. It seems it's a country where anyone can do anything here. A page that carried messages of harmony and goodwill led to turmoil, and in the ensuing clashes, 33 people were injured. Such an incident could likely only happen in Bangladesh, because this nation has seemingly lost its sense of reason and logical judgment. Especially some groups are constantly trying to exploit the situation for their own gain. Otherwise, this event cannot be explained in any other way.
Textbooks must reach to students quickly
The new academic year begins for students with the distribution of free textbooks on the first day of the year. Receiving new books on the first day of the year feels like a celebration to the students. The scent of new books not only marks the beginning of a new year but also a new chapter in their lives. The tradition of handing out textbooks to students on the first day of the year started in 2010, but this year, students did not receive their books on that day. It has been reported that primary and secondary school students may receive a few books by January 5, while others will get their books by January 20. However, they will have to wait until February to receive all the books.
