The sound of rain no longer soothes Dhaka residents. A moderate monsoon shower of even less than an hour comes as a nightmare to them. Intermittent rain throughout the day yesterday wreaked havoc in city life, yet again, with streets submerged with dirty water.

Journalists and students of Rajshahi University form a human chain on the campus yesterday demanding punishment for the attackers of Arafat Rahman, RU correspondent of The Daily Star. Several RU unit activists of Bangladesh Chhatra League brutally beat up Arafat near the university main gate on Monday as he was taking photographs of a bus being vandalised by the BCL men.
