The Rosikpur Secondary School in Mujibnagar upazila of Meherpur has not been opened even after nearly two decades of its construction. Built at a cost of about 85 lakh taka, the building has been lying unused for a long time, damaging the infrastructure and equipment.
Students from Rosikpur, Ratanpur, Dholmari, and Paranpur villages have to travel 7 to 10 kilometers to attend distant schools due to the lack of nearby secondary educational institutions. This commute exposes students and guardians to risks of road accidents and harassment.
Locals and students have demanded the immediate opening of the school so that village children can study nearby and avoid the sufferings of long-distance commuting.
