Student politics should not be abolished; it needs to be purified

In the village, there's a saying, 'The poor man's wife is everyone's sister-in-law.' In Bangladesh's politics, student politics is like that poor man's wife. Any mishap leads to blame falling on student politics. Whenever something happens in an educational institution, demands arise to shut down student politics. This trend isn't new; it has been ongoing for a long time. When the leaders of student organizations supported by the ruling party get involved in murder, terrorism, extortion, and corruption scandals, everyone demands the shutdown of student politics. But has any leader of the youth wing ever demanded the cessation of youth politics when they are involved in casino scandals? Many politicians in Bangladesh are embroiled in murders, corruption, tender manipulation, bank looting, and stock market scams; has anyone ever demanded or thought of shutting down politics because of that? Let's leave politics aside. Is there any profession where corruption is absent? There are corrupt individuals in every profession: police, doctors, engineers, journalists. Then why is all the blame directed towards student politics?
