Natore Deputy Commissioner (DC) Shamim Ahmed visited Haibatpur Government Primary School of Natore Sadar Upazila and took classes. He took the general knowledge class of fourth and fifth class students.
He took classes for about half an hour on Thursday (November 10) morning. At this time, the Deputy Commissioner gave motivational and educational speech to the students.
Deputy Commissioner Shamim Ahmed said to the students in the class that they should study by heart. If you are very upset, you will read a book. Don’t hurt anyone. Never be disappointed. Go ahead with confidence. Don’t do what you don’t like. You can change the country if you want. So there is no alternative to study.
He also said, don’t be a big man, be a big man. There is no substitute for quality education to impart real education to the next generation, inculcate love of country and humanity and make them true human beings. Quality education must be ensured through collective efforts of all.
The Deputy Commissioner said, as we worship, respect and love our mother, we do our duty towards her. Similarly motherland should be seen as mother. And if you love people, it will be possible to become a golden person.
Student Katha Muni says, We are happy to have DC Sir as our teacher. I never imagined that he would take our class. Sir has explained our general knowledge very nicely and simply. He encouraged us to learn and grow up.
Another student, Mehdi Hasan, said, “When DC Sir entered the class, I did not understand that he was the Deputy Administrator. And when he started taking classes, we thought we had a new teacher. Sir explained our general knowledge nicely.
