Young generation should give more importance to education: Fakhrul

BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir said, “Youths are very much connected with the modern technologies as their intellectual power is very sharp. If we can utilize the youth in the right way, the image of the country will change. Only the young generation can eliminate all the discriminations and build a society free of inequity. They can bring revolutionary changes at all the levels of the country. For all these, they should give more importance to education”.
