Instil Liberation War spirit into youths

A minister on Wednesday urged the teacher community to put up dedicated efforts for creating a new generation imbued with the spirit of the Liberation War, reports BSS.

The minister said the freedom fighters under the leadership of Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman brought independence of the country, so the new generation should uphold the spirit of the Liberation War for the overall progress of the nation.

Minister for Liberation War Affairs AKM Mozammel Haque made the call while addressing the 151th basic orientation course of BCS Education Cadre trainees organised by National Education Management at Naeem Bhaban in the city marking the Independence Day.

The present government is working on a comprehensive action plan for the overall success of the nation, Haque said.

The new generation should work with the spirit of Independence War to make the comprehensive plan a success, he added.

The young generation with time befitting education is a must to make the country prosperous, the minister opined.

Haque said the well-educated new generation will be able to reach the country to the peak of development and the dedicated teachers should build a well-educated new generation.

He further said after the killing of Bangabandhu's family, the true history of the War of Liberation was distorted by a section of vested quarters and then the young generation was deprived of real history.
