SONATOLA, Bogura — Bangladesh Islami Chhatra Shibir held a reception and career guidance program for outstanding students at the Government Nazir Akhtar College auditorium on Wednesday, with speakers urging the next generation to play a leading role in education, character development and nation-building.
The program, held under the theme “Today’s youth will play a leading role in education, character and nation-building,” began at noon. Principal Shahabuddin, central executive member of Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami and a likely candidate for the Bogura-1 seat, was the chief guest.
“Today’s students are the statesmen of tomorrow,” Shahabuddin said. “If they can combine ethical values, ideological awareness and competence, they will be able to play important roles in the leadership of society and the country.”
Labibul Hasan, president of the Sonatola upazila Shibir unit, chaired the program.
Dr. Rezwanul Islam, central student welfare secretary of Bangladesh Islami Chhatra Shibir, was the chief discussant. “To choose the right career, one must combine personal interest, skills and social need,” he said. “The role of youth in technology, medicine, agriculture, entrepreneurship and other sectors will further accelerate Bangladesh’s progress.”
The program was conducted by Hafez Mehedi Hasan, upazila Baitul Mal secretary. Special guests included Jobaer Ahmed, president of Bogura district east Shibir; Nazrul Islam, father of martyr Saikat; and Saiful Islam, parent of an outstanding student and a social worker.
Outstanding students were honored with crests and certificates. The program ended with prayers.
Teachers, parents and students who attended said the event would stand as more than a reception, serving as a unique example of inspiration and guidance for students.
