Dhaka University came alive on Friday as students and faculty celebrated Saraswati Puja, honoring the Hindu goddess of knowledge, wisdom, and creativity. The annual festival, centered at Jagannath Hall, featured 76 pavilions where offerings, prayers, and rituals were performed from the morning. Of these, 74 were built by different departments and institutes, while two were organized by the hall administration.
Each pavilion reflected unique themes and artistic expression. The Finance Department highlighted the vastness of the universe through lights and designs, while the English Department decorated its pavilion with hand-painted artwork. The central idol, placed in the pond at Jagannath Hall and crafted by Fine Arts students, drew special attention for its aesthetic appeal. The Department of Mass Communication and Journalism stood out with a pavilion symbolizing burned media outlets, protesting recent arson attacks on two major news organizations. Students said their theme, “Mobocracy,” called for peace and justice.
Hall Provost Professor Debashish Pal explained that, unlike previous years, no pre-festival press conference was held due to time constraints, though information was shared through notices and billboards.
