Where does comrades’ cry be heard? You won’t know the meaning of starving until you are a victim. Rapid rise of food prices has led to depression among comrades knowing it is their daily meal. Some see it good to be absent in class because they don’t have that energy to sustain them for 3 hours. Refilling of gases has become a hell. Comrades have been forced to extend their sleep, so that they can forget and miss their meal intentionally.
They stay at Wifi stations watching how other comrades are suffering and see they are better of. Those “encouraging” videos keep them going and pushing the semester. Recently there have been many cases of comrades committing suicide since it is the solution if depression and hunger. Comrades need to be considered concerning the price of food.
