SIDR Relief Support
Recently Bangladesh has experienced another episode of natural calamity termed as 'SIDR'. The 15th November, 2007 is the black night in the history of Bangladesh when sidr hit many costal districts including Khulna, Bagerhat, Patuakhali, Pirozpur, Gopalgonj, and many neighboring districts Bay of Bengal.
As a gesture of humanitarian empathy, all doctors, students and employees of Rajshahi Medical College and Hospital came forward with their moral and relief supports with a collection of Tk. 4, 75,000 to stand beside the sidr affected people. A 20 members team headed by 3 senior doctors went to Sharankhola upazilla of Bagerhat district, the worst affected area near Sundarban with relief goods, medicines and cash money. The relief team stayed on 25th and 26th November, 07 to distribute all the relief goods among the affected people. The humanitarian effort offered by RMC at the very beginning of relief works by different agencies was covered adequately by different media and was praised from different corners. |
Student's Week (Cultural Week)
Co-curricular activities such as outdoor and indoor games, literary and cultural programmes are always complementary to academic activities for any Institution. Unfortunately there has been a long gap to observe these activities in an organized fashion in RMC. In 2006, with the enthusiastic endeavor of present college administration and whole hearted cooperation of the students, the cultural activity of the students called student's week started again. Although in 2006, the participation of the students was a bit less but in 2007 it became a colourful week loaded with different cultural activities observed during 22-26 July'07 with lively participation of all students and teachers. A grand prize distribution ceremony followed the cultural week held on 16-08-07 with a remarkable closing cultural evening along with a mini drama performed by distinguished artists from both students and teachers of RMC. A colorful cultural week was observed in RMC from 09 - 13 November 2008. |
