// Shamsul Basunia //
Lesson providing activities of two schools named Doulatpur Soleman Multilateral High School and Konpara Government Primary School situated at Khochabarirhat under Jagannathpur sadar upazila of Thakurgaon district go on amidst the bazar in Thakurgaon that mars the environment of education, the sufferers alleged. The bazar usually sits on two days Saturday and Tuesday in a week where tens of hundreds people come and selling and buying activities go on amidst huge hue and cry while the lesson giving activities continue at the two schools. Cattle market and market of fisheries emits bad smell that makes the students impossible to sit in the classes. After over the bazars on following days like on Sunday and Wednesday students and teachers usually come to classes with handkerchief because to avert the bad smell of cow dung and urine along with the wastage of meat and fisheries beside the class rooms. Doulatpur Soleman Multilateral High School and Konpara Government Primary School  locals said the schools started in the reign of the then Pakistan since then nobody uttered a word to shift the bazar as at that time the space was thinly populated. When the two schools and bazars grow in populous way after a certain span of time, the hazards have been surfaced to the people and now it becomes a irritation and place nuisance. Doulatpur Soleman Multilateral High School has been built during the year 1963 at 100 decimals of land while Konpara Government Primary School has been built during the year 1949 at 50 decimals of land. People of these two areas are gentle and they didn’t raise any voice against the nuisance. Over three hundred students male and female are studying in these two schools. When the Daily Tribunal correspondent travelled the spot found actually the teachers and students are suffering untold miseries here. The two educational institutions are situated at the side of local Jagannathpur Union Council office and beside the Thakurgaon-Dinajpur highways. The hue and cry rises when the commodities laden vehicles especially the cattle laden trucks come into the markets. There lies a Central Shaheed Minar beside the two schools at medicine selling hawkers assemble there and begin to shout through microphone that make listening and talking halted. Insiders of the two institutions said in most of the cases the authorities compel to announce schools are over and the students leave the premises without completing the lessons.  Class eight boy Shakhawat Hossain of Doulatpur Soleman Multilateral High School said cattle traders erect bamboo fencing for preserving the cattle at the school field that destroys the atmosphere of playground and that is why we stop playing though we have our own playgrounds. Class seven girl Afroza Begum said the school authorities compel to announce closure of the schools at 12 pm due to the assembling of the markets. Class five student Keya Begum, class four student Kartik Roy and Sumaya under Konpara Government Primary School said they are always got frightened while they walk amidst the cattle market as because the cattle might attack them at any time. Several times the cattle jump over the boys and girls and they become wounded, they added.
Headmaster Ganesh Babu of Doulatpur Soleman Multilateral High School told the bazaar sitting incidence certainly pollutes the education atmosphere. Headmaster Fatema Khanom of Konpara Government Primary School told the cattle spreads panic amidst the boys and girls and most of the learners stopped coming school for fear of attacks them. Jagannathpur UP chairman Alauddin Alal told government earns lot of revenue from the market. However there has scope to shift the markets to elsewhere. If the administration comes to solve the standing problem the atmosphere of the two schools might return to normalcy. UNO Ashraful Islam of Thakurgaon Sadar Upazila said no one complains against the market and bazaar so we don’t ever think over the matters. He assured to shift the place of bazaar and markets from the premises of schools after consulting to the superior bosses. http://www.basuniahumanist.blogspot.com  link: www.thedailytribunal.net
