Rajshahi University of Engineering and Technology (RUET) installed Bangabandhu Corner in ground floor of its Library building yesterday which aims at projecting the life and works of Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman to the people in general, reports BSS. Mayor of Rajshahi City Corporation AHM Khairuzzaman Liton opened the corner as the chief guest.
Presided over by RUET Vice-chancellor (VC) Professor Rafiqul Islam Sheikh, the ceremony was addressed, among others, by former VC of Rajshahi University Prof Sayedur Rahman Khan, Director of Rajshahi Medical College Hospital Brigadier General Jamilur Rahman and RUET Registrar Prof Selim Hossain. Speaking on the occasion, Liton urged the students to know the life and works of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman to become patriotic citizen of the country.
“The new generation must follow the ideals of Bangabandhu for becoming the patriotic citizen of the country,” the mayor said, adding that they should also listen the speeches of Bangabandhu minutely. Bangladesh emerged as an independent country in 1971 under the dynamic and farsighted leadership of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, Liton said. All the fugitive convicts will be brought back to the country for executing the verdict given by the country’s apex court so that none can dare to commit such types of heinous crimes. The corner has been enriched with Bangabandhu’s portrait, historic speech of 7th March, photographs of his life and more than 500 books on life and works of Bangabandhu.
