State Minister for Shipping Khalid Mahmud Chowdhury said a photograph is worth a thousand words and it is one of the languages to maintain contact.
“A photograph can easily express emotion, feelings and reaction. We can utilize youth’s creativity and energy through photography,” he said. Khalid came up with the observations on Friday while addressing a discussion held on the sideline of a photography exhibition organised at Zainul Art Gallery of Charukola Institute in the city.
Presided over by former Director General of Press Institute of Bangladesh (PIB) Prof Dr Sheikh Abdus Salam, the discussion was also addressed, among others, by former Vice-Chancellor of Dhaka University Prof Dr AAMS Arefin Siddique, lawmaker Pankaj Debnath, Prof Nesar Hossain, Prime Minister’s Deputy Press Secretary Ashraful Alam Khokan, photo journalist Ahmed Pipul and photographer Tanvir Tipu.
