Nahid said “You (students) are the future of the country. So, you have to be good citizens through acquiring knowledge to boost the development process for building a prosperous Bangladesh.”
He urged the authorities concerned to ensure congenial academic atmosphere at all educational institutions to make those free from all sorts of terror activities.
“Both public and private universities should be centre of excellence for practicing of new knowledge…Without ensuring good academic atmosphere, it is not possible for improving quality of tertiary education,” he added.
The government has expanded the opportunity of higher education across the country to all students, he said adding, “Students are easily receiving higher education as we have expanded facilities for higher education up to the upazila level.”
