In his remarks, Engineer Ikbal Mahmud urged students to uphold honesty in all examinations and competitions. He noted that dishonest means may provide short-term satisfaction but ultimately undermine genuine learning, and called on parents to encourage their children to rely on their own abilities.
A total of 50 participants received medals, certificates, and T-shirts across the Primary, Junior, Secondary, and Higher Secondary categories. Teachers, students, and parents contributed to a festive atmosphere throughout the day-long event.
The Lakshmipur Math Club also announced its new executive committee, appointing Muntasir Raihan Zidan (IUT, CEE) as President and Jubaer Islam Nabib (BUET, BME) as General Secretary. In his speech, the new General Secretary stated that Maths Olympiads inspire young learners to explore the wider world of mathematics — from patterns in nature to the logic behind problem-solving.
