SYLHET, July 18 (BSS): Education Minister Dr Dipu Moni on Monday said the flood-affected SSC candidates in Sylhet and other areas will be provided with books by July 24.
The minister also said necessary measures will be taken through respective educational institutions to meet any kinds of needs of the students in Sylhet and other regions affected by recurring floods.
The minister made the remarks at a view-exchange meeting with the officials of education department at the Sylhet Circuit House here.
Asked about the new curriculum, Dr Dipu Moni said, "In addition to theoretical religious education, practical religious education has been included in the new curriculum, thus the issue of religious practice has become more important in the curriculum."
"A malicious circle is spreading communal frenzy and harassing teachers in various educational institutions," the minister said while replying to the queries from the journalists.
Commenting that the propagandists are harming the religion by coming out of the religious spirit and using the religion itself, Dr Dipu Moni urged everyone to be careful about this and to come forward to prevent the propaganda from spreading further.
The Ministry of Education organised the meeting following the initiative to provide books and other education materials to the students of different areas in Sylhet due to recent flood, which washed away and damaged their books and other education materials.
Other relevant issues like the damage and recovery of the education sector because of flood, academic activities in Sylhet district after flood, damaged educational institutions, new textbooks and curriculum of SSC and educational institutions under MPO were discussed at the meeting.
Deputy Commissioner of Sylhet Md Mujibur Rahman chaired the meeting. It was also attended by education department officials of the four districts under the division.
