Govt working to ensure no child is left behind: Bobby Hajjaj
The state minister says the government is working to build an inclusive education system.
State Minister of Primary and Mass Education Bobby Hajjaj has reaffirmed the government's commitment to building an inclusive education system, saying no child's dreams should be limited by physical or any other challenges.
Addressing a special screening and discussion of "Payer Chhap", a documentary on Ayesha, a talented young woman born without both hands, today (30 July), he said the government is working with families, schools, and communities to ensure every child can develop their talents and potential.
Inclusive education would ensure that no child is left behind, he said while speaking at the programme held at the auditorium of the Bangladesh University of Textiles (Butex) in Tejgaon, Dhaka.
Bobby said perseverance, regular study, and self-confidence are the keys to success. "With dedication, students can become doctors, scientists, teachers, astronauts or even hold the country's highest public offices."
He said Ayesha's life and achievements demonstrate that determination can overcome adversity.
However, he said such success should not remain an exception, stressing that families, society and the state must work together to help every child realise their full potential.
He added that the government, under the leadership of Prime Minister Tarique Rahman, is working to establish an inclusive education system that guarantees equal opportunities for every child.
Bobby also thanked the prime minister for appointing Ayesha as a class supervisor at Gaibandha BIAM Laboratory School and College.
The programme was attended by students from educational institutions in the Tejgaon area, teachers and students of Butex, and media representatives.
