Is Rampal project sustainable?

Even if there’s 1 percent chance that the Rampal Power Plant project would cause harm to the Sundarbans and its biodiversity, the government should not implement it. Yes, we are badly in need of power, but we should not and must not risk the Sundarbans at any cost. We may be able to build 10 more power plants but can we build another forest like the Sunderbans?

Seat crisis in JU Library

Jahangirnagar University is one of the country’s leading public universities where more than 12 thousand students study in different subjects. But it is a matter of great regret that the central library has only 300 seats. We are drawing the attention of the authorities to solve the crisis.
