University is an institution of producing knowledge,where the students become acquainted with the kingdom of knowledge. A nation expects a lot from the knowledge seekers who study at the universities as they will be the steersman of the country in future . But do the university students have tendency or wariness of achieving and discovering new knowledge? It is always a burning question especially when discussion goes on about the environment of universities in Bangladesh. Recently the conscious group of the country express their concern about the activities of of university students that aggressiveness and extremism are growing tremendously among the students.

In our country,violence in the university is always themost talked topic.If we can take a deep look to some current occurrences, we will certainly realize this fact.

Recently three students of Dhaka University were arrested by the Shahabag police while running away after stopping a covered van and demanding 50,000 TK. The incident took place in front of BUET central mosque on february 5.

Another horrific incident occurred in Islamic university where a female student was stripped naked and afflicted by some students which sparked widespread discussion.Such kind of news we are getting everyday that university students are becoming more reckless and aggressive and that is certainly a matter of great concern.
There are several reasons behind the rise in aggressiveness and extremism.

First of all,Nowadays it is noticeable that maximum students have the tendency to show chivalry in the campus,for which they got inspiration and shelter from politics as this group of students is involved in student politics. As a result of this,they get involved in many anti-social activities like robbery,extortion, rape and eve-teasing etc.
Secondly, since ours is an age of globalization, social media plays a vital role here.A particular group of students wants to represent themselves as a hero and most powerful person in the campus motivated by the Bollywood and Hollywood movies.That means they want to practice heroism.In order to meet up this desire they keep on trying to dominate the people day and night, which is mostly noticeable in the campus and even in the public transports.
The sick political environment of the country can never escape its responsibility. Political leaders in the universities don’t pay attention on what their activists are doing,rather in many aspects they are benefited through these careless activities.For this specific reason a certain group of students have the type of mindset that whatever they do,their leader will support it,which makes them more aggressive and reckless.
So,in order to turn all the universities into knowledge producing institution and ensure safe campus for education the authority must concentrate on controlling the reckless and aggressive students, that is the need of hour.Otherwise, the nation’s future will move towards an uncertain destination.
