Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina called the youth the most important stakeholders to transform Bangladesh into a developed and prosperous country by 2041, asking them to be well prepared for each field including education.
“The youths are most important for a nation. I want them to get ready properly, particularly in education. Our youth is our strength and they can turn Bangladesh into a developed and prosperous country as envisioned by Bangabandhu,” she said.
PM said this while distributing “Sheikh Hasina Youth Volunteer Award-2022”, for the second time, organised by the Ministry of Youth and Sports, at the Osmani Memorial Auditorium here, joining virtually from her official Ganabhaban residence on Sunday (September 11).
She said Bangladesh is now becoming a developing country and the government has taken programmes to transform Bangladesh into a developed one by 2041.
She also said, “We have got the status of a developing nation. Our next target is to become a developed country by 2041 and the youths can fulfil the target as they are the main architects of 2041.”
Sheikh Hasina greeted the award-winning youths for their contribution to creating employment, imparting training to others and reaching education to the grassroots alongside doing various social and nation-building activities.
“Today, I am very happy to see that the youth folk have stood beside the people and provided education and training alongside creating employment for the masses,” she said.
The prime minister also expressed her hope that the next generation will be inspired through their activities and will engage themselves in national building works.
