He urged teachers to conduct their classes with greater responsibility and sincerity. At the same time, he emphasized the importance of creating an environment conducive to the development of students’ intellect and talent.

Presided over by Durgapur Upazila Nirbahi Officer (UNO) Ahmed Sadat, the event was addressed by Additional Deputy Commissioner (Education and ICT) Munmun Jahan Liza, Durgapur Police Station Officer-in-Charge (OC) Khandaker Saker Ahmed, and Upazila BNP President Jahirul Alam Bhuiyan as special guests.
