Food at DU canteen alarmingly poor

Dhaka University has hiked the price of food at the canteens of its residence halls in line with inflation, but the quality of the food has not improved one bit. Students have complained that fish and meat dishes have smaller portions and that the cafeterias are serving low-quality rice, watered-down lentils and substandard vegetables.
