A group of leaders from the central committee of the Bangladesh Jatiyatabadi Chhatra Dal (student wing) organized an awareness campaign at Dhaka University on April 12, 2026, to promote responsible use of water and electricity. The event began in front of the central library, where leaflets were distributed under the theme “Are we fulfilling our responsibilities in this global crisis?” urging students to reduce waste in daily life.

The campaign, led by the organization’s library secretary Touhidul Islam, emphasized that small acts of negligence—such as leaving lights or taps on unnecessarily—can collectively worsen resource shortages. He noted that conserving electricity and water is not only about saving costs but also about protecting the environment, as excessive energy use increases fuel consumption and pollution.

Touhidul Islam highlighted that residential halls, where many students live together, are particularly vulnerable to waste. He called on students to make conservation a habit, stressing that small steps today could help avert larger crises in the future.
