Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has pledged to give Notebooks
to all students in future so they can download books from the internet.
“We will give Notebooks (to students) that will have
everything. Digital books will also be given in the future,” she said, while
inaugurating a textbook festival at the Gana Bhaban on Wednesday.
She said there would not be any need to send books to remote
areas; students would be able to download books from the Internet.
Hasina gave textbooks to some students at the festival.
She congratulated those involved in book production for
completing their task in time despite the political violence in the country.
The Prime Minister said 38.6 million people in Bangladesh
were now using the Internet.
She said they were planning to make youths skilled in
outsourcing.
This year, 43,353,201 students will receive 317,725,526
textbooks and other education materials.
Schools across Bangladesh
will hold textbook festivals on Thursday to distribute books among students.
The government has been distributing free textbooks to
students since 2010.
As many as 1.24 billion books have been distributed in the
past four years.
