Staff Reporter :
The guardians on Wednesday demanded cancellation of Class-V completion examination from this year.
They also protested the government’s initiative to take the same examination for two times (2016 and 2019).
The guardians said this at a human chain held in front of the Ideal School and College organized by its Ovibhabok Forum.
The forum Chairman Ziaul Kabir Dulu presided over the programme,
 while Moloy Sarker, Salma Begum and Jharna Akhter, spoke there among others.
Ziaul Kabir Dulu alleged that the government violated the National Education Policy-2010, as there is no direction to take the Class-V completion examination.
He said that the Education Ministry handed over the responsibility of the students (Class V1 to VIII) to the Primary and Mass Education Ministry. The Primary and Mass Education Ministry will conduct the primary education completion examination after completing class eight. So, it is illogical to hold the examination after Class-V, he said.
Earlier in the morning, the forum brought out a procession started in front of the Ideal School and College and ended after parading different roads of the city.
The forum will also form another human chain at the same place today (Thursday).
