Relocate JnU to a new place, as promised
Jagannath University (JnU) marked its 12th anniversary on October 20. The university, as an educational institution, started its journey in 1858 when Dhaka Brahma School was founded. Not too long ago in 2005, it became a university.
In its 12 years of history, JnU has produced some of the brightest minds in the country. Currently, it has 24,000 students in 38 departments and institutions. Despite the fact that the university is allotted a very low budget, it performs better than many of its counterparts.
Unfortunately, it is the only public university in the country with no student halls. Students took to streets to realise their demands in vain. The government decided to shift the university to avail all necessary facilities. As a student, I urge the authorities to fulfil their promise as soon as possible.
