A large number of our children, our youths are missing out on the joy and pride of expressing themselves in a well versed mother tongue, Bangla.
Most of these children are the students studying in the English medium schools. They have Bangla in their school curriculum but most of the schools keep the syllabus to a marginal level. That is more so because the other subjects in English come with lengthy syllabuses. Apart from school some guardians try to keep Bangla in practice at home through reading, writing or give them access to Bangla literature. Students coming from Bengali medium schools also seldom delve into the Bangla literature apart from the school curriculum. There are a counted few who read Bangla books to help them strengthen their hold of the language and neither do they keep up with their writing.
In English medium schools learning English as a second language takes up a large portion of the children’s learning capacity. Coming from Bangla speaking families the children have a hard time learning the second language.

My recent trip to Cox’s Bazar, some 20 odd years later, however, was starkly contrasting in that the circumstance was dire, one which continues to sit steep in my mind.
