Khadimul Sardar, Berobi Correspondent:
Academic activities are being disrupted due to loud music playing near the academic building of Begum Rokeya University (BEROBI) in Rangpur during class exams. Meanwhile, final exams are underway in most departments.
University students have expressed anger over loud music being played during final exams of various departments and classes in some departments on Monday (February 24).
It is known that the final exams of the Accounting and Information Systems and Public Administration departments of Academic Building 3 are underway. In addition, mid-term exams of several departments are underway, and classes of some departments were also going on at the same time. At the same time, a batch of the Political Science Department was seen playing loud music in front of the building on the occasion of Rag Day. University students have expressed their anger on social media Facebook over the loud music being played in front of the academic building during class exams.
Students expressed anger when a post about loud music was posted on a university page.
A student named Abdullah Al Rifat commented, "The administration is wearing bangles, arrangements should be made to buy saris."
Another student named Kazi Siam Hossain commented, "Today, we were having our midterm exams when these noises were coming."
Muntaha Parveen Trisha commented, "Now the final exams of all departments are going on. Such behavior is not right. What should be done should be done after 5 pm."
A student named Taibul wrote, "I didn't understand anything at that time, brother, whether I would take the exam or enjoy the music."
Students demanded a ban on playing music in front of academic buildings from 9 am to 5 pm during class exams.
In this regard, the head of the Department of Political Science, Dr. Md. Tanziul Islam (Jibon), said, "I have told you not to play music loudly and if you have to play music privately, then you have to do it in low sound."
In this regard, the director of the outdoor area, Dr. Md. Ferdous Islam, said that permission has been given to the students of the political science department to hold a program. But loud music is prohibited there. Even then, they play loud music. I was in a meeting. I immediately sent the assistant proctor and informed the chairman of the department. Even then, they did not listen. A show cause notice will be sent against them by the university administration.
