'…have to prepare new generation accurately'

Staff Correspondent: Terming the education as a big work for building future, Education Minister Nurul Islam Nahid said, "We have to prepare the new generation accurately as they can make their lives successful by pursuing proper education as well as work for the development of the country."

The Minister came up with the statement while addressing as the chief guest in the education scholarship distribution ceremony arranged by the officers and employees cooperative association of the education ministry at Segunbagicha in the capital on Friday.

The Minister also called the private sector to come forward for promotion of quality and enhance the scope of education for more people.

"The private sector should assist the government to facilitate quality education in the country as it is tough for the government alone to complete such huge task," said the minister.

He reiterated that the present government is providing various facilities including distribution of textbooks free of cost among students, scholarship and stipend, saying that the students must have to exploit these opportunities.

"We want to reach to our target by 2021, ..we want to build poverty and hunger free Bangladesh and that's why the young generation should promote themselves in line with the world class performance," he added.
