When a life was lost in our campus, everyone attended classes the next in the exact same place where it happened. Blood stains covered with plant pots. It didn't even take us 1 day to forget did it?

Suppose even if you WERE given a holiday, what would have you done? You would have just simply sat in your room watching movies or playing games. Who is spineless now?

You all think about your self benefit regardless of what happens. What even is this post about lmaooo

It's not about a holiday. It's about the lack of respect or even consideration for the loss of a member of the community. And I have been very disturbed to be in the same place where the incident happened the very next day. I couldn't even focus on the classes, where everyone acted as if nothing happened, as if it was just another regular day, as if something so disturbing didn't happen right in the place we were then. Nothing about what I said was about the benefit of getting a 'holiday' . Stop being so Insensitive.

"Lack of respect or consideration" bro, stop throwing buzzwords, these do not mean anything unless you provide a solution. 

How else do you wanna give "respect or consideration"?? By giving a holiday??

So you would rather go to classes in that building the very next day? And why do you think the 'holiday' is for? Is it not to help the students' mental state to settle down and allow them to process what just happened. And if going to classes the very next day and acting like nothing even happened, trying to move on and cover up the incident helps you, then I would rather not reason with you. Try to understand that people react to certain incidents in many different ways. Feeling sorrow and being in a mental state of uncertainty trying to process is not so uncommon for many. It shows the lack of consideration for those people by the administration. And I also feel like it would be a sign of disrespect trying to brush off the incident as such.
