Primary and Mass Education Affairs Adviser Professor Dr Bidhan Ranjan Roy Podder on Saturday underscored the need for reforming people’s mindset positively before reforming constitution or others.
“If people are not reformed, there will be no benefit in reforming constitution or any other issues,” he said, reports BSS.
The adviser made the remarks while addressing a seminar on “Role of Libraries in State Reform” organized by Sammilito Pathagar Andolan in the auditorium of Microbiology Department of Dhaka University here as the chief guest.
President of Sammilito Pathagar Andolan Abdus Sattar Khan presided over the seminar.
Jatiya Grantha Kendro Director Afsana Begum, writer Shafiq Islam, writer and publisher Feroz Ahmed, vice president of Sammilito Pathagar Andolan Mohammad Mosharraf Hossain also spoke.
Adviser Bidhan said the state can be reformed through reformation of the people.
In that case, libraries can reform people as reading books helps to flourish thinking and imagination and create empathy toward people.
