Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina today called upon the
children to take preparation from now on to make them worthy as they can go to

moment," she said while opening "Bangabandhu Corner" at

Jani" (Let's know Bangabandhu) drawn by the children with special needs at
the school which was established in 1912.
The
prime minister asked the students to study attentively as they can be prime
minister, ministers, scientists and noted personalities of the country one day.
"Study
attentively to be great human beings. We will build Smart Bangladesh. You will
be really smart. You will run the state one day. You will be prime minister,
minister and scientist and going to the greater places and doing
researches," she said.
The

Rahman, said her father wanted to give the children a beautiful life.
About
the album of the pictures on the country's history drawn by the children with
special needs, she said it will help let know the country's history.

them an improved life," she added.
