DU losing environment-friendly campus

Dhaka University (DU) campus is losing its environment-friendly atmosphere day by day as the authorities are constructing a number of new buildings cutting a large number of trees on the campus. Sources said around 150 trees were felled in last five years to create space for new buildings making the campus a concrete jungle. The university authorities virtually did not take any significant steps to plant new trees on the campus to make up for losses. Moreover, new buildings are being constructed wherever the minimum space for their construction is available.
