Anti-discrimination Student Movement

The Anti-discrimination Student Movement was a big incident in Bangladesh in July 2024. It started as the students were unhappy about the government's quota system for jobs.
In June 2024, the High Court announced a 30% quota for the children of freedom fighters in government jobs.

There were already quotas for other groups, which meant only 44% of jobs were left for general applicants. The students thought this was unfair and wanted a change.

This protest was not the first one. Similar protests took place in 2013 and 2018. This time, the students took to the streets again. They blocked roads and became very serious about the protest. The protests grew stronger gradually. On July 15, some armed people attacked the students, injuring many. The protests became more violent, and many students were hurt. The students then turned their protest against the government. On August 3, they made one demand: the government must resign.

Finally, on August 5, the Prime Minister stepped down. The students' unity and hard work helped bring down the government and changed the future of Bangladesh.

Artificial Intelligence (AI)

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a type of technology that allows machines or programs to do tasks that normally need a human brain. Al can learn, think, and solve problems, just like humans. There are two types of AI: weak AI and strong AI. Weak AI does simple tasks, like answering questions or playing music. Strong AI is more advanced and can think and make decisions like a human.

Al is used in many ways. It helps people in offices to do their work faster and better. In banks, AI can predict risks and help earn money. It is also used in medicine to help doctors find problems in the body. Al makes technology in airplanes and space better. It helps make homes and offices safer by controlling alarms and security cameras. Al even helps us communicate with people far away through online meetings.

However, AI has some drawbacks. It can sometimes spread wrong information on social media. Some people worry that AI might get too smart and replace humans. Again, it can destroy the creativity of humans as they become fully dependent on it.

AI can be very helpful, but we need to use it carefully to make sure it is safe and does not cause harm.

Tree Plantation

Trees are the most important element of nature. Men depend much on trees. Trees provide us with oxygen, food, furniture, etc and take in carbondioxide which is harmful to human beings and all animals. So to say, our life on earth largely depends upon trees. But it is a matter of great regret that we are cutting down trees very unwisely for quick profit. It is really a matter of great concern.

First, it is important to know what trees do for us. Trees are useful to us in various ways. Man needs oxygen. In every breath we take oxygen in and leave carbon dioxide out. Trees leave oxygen out and take carbon dioxide in.
Thus they provide us with the most necessary thing we need on earth. Trees also give us food and shelter. We cannot live without the help of trees.
But at present people are cutting down trees at a large scale. There are many reasons of cutting down trees. Man is cutting them down mainly for firewood and furniture. Every day our population is increasing. So, more firewood and furniture are needed for the additional people.
Tropical rain forests are also being cleared at a high rate. It takes thousands of years to grow a tropical rain forest. But at present they are being cleared at the rate of fourteen square miles per hour.
The effect of deforestation is very harmful and dangerous. For this, 'Greenhouse Effect' has occurred and the temperature of the world is increasing day, by day. Heat waves, have grasped many countries. Ice is melting in the South and the North Poles. The level of water in the sea is increasing. This may lead to worldwide flood.
Measures should immediately be taken to prevent deforestation. We should plant five trees if we cut down one. We should also try our best to stop cutting down trees and save the environment. Otherwise, our future will be very difficult and uninhabitable.

Duties of a Student

Student life is the most useful and valuable period in a man's life. This is the time when the seeds of future life are sown. For this, it is called the sowing season in our life. During this period a student has to do certain things to be successful and happy in his future life.

The principal duty of a student is to study and acquire knowledge on various things. He must study according to a routine. He has to be attentive to his studies and teachers. He should also read newspapers, magazines, literature, history, etc.

A student should remember that character is the crown of a man. So he has to cultivate good manners and other noble virtues. All moral qualities like honesty, modesty, truthfulness, discipline, perseverance, sincerity, punctuality must be acquired during this time.
He should also render some services to his society and country. He should make the illiterate literate. He can make the farmers aware of the modern methods of cultivation. In population control, he can play an important role.
A student must obey and honour his parents. When they are sick, helpless or old, he must serve them. He should also be obedient to his teachers and other superiors.
A student must not waste his time and energy. So he must possess a sound health by taking regular physical exercise, taking part in games and sports. Moreover, he must always avoid evil company.
Besides, a student may have the knowledge of politics but he must not take part in active politics. It is because many political parties and their unethical leaders use them only for their selfish interest.
In case of national emergencies like floods, tornadoes, storms, etc. he must not sit idle. He must extend his helping hands during these times.
To reap the good and expected harvest of success in future, a student must sow good seeds during his student life. Otherwise, it will bring him utter failure, untold sorrows, miseries and repentance.
