Bangladesh Computer Association (BCS) and ICT Business Promotion Council (IBPC) jointly organized a day-long program in Munshiganj to increase awareness in IT.

The program was held in the headquarters of the Khahra-Churain Model Degree College Auditorium in Srinagar Upazila of Munshiganj on Thursday.

Srinagar Upazila chairman Mashiur Rahman Mamun was the chief guest at the workshop. He said, Digital Bangladesh is the first tool of technology. In the pursuit of the nation, the success will be very difficult for them. The students of the upazila and countryside are also progressing in IT. This development has accelerated due to the availability of the Internet. With the cost of computers, smartphones and digital devices at hand, people are getting an idea about moving ahead easily.

He also said that the distance of the capital with Munshiganj is only 35 kilometers. Once the work of the Padma Bridge is completed, it will be half of the time required to pass this distance. The present government considers education and information technology as seriously the condition of development. The benefits of this are already visible. Because of the government's vision, the students are now getting the opportunity to compete with the students of the colleges of the city while studying in the upazila's college.

Principal of Srinagar Model Degree College, Azizul Islam was the special guest in the program.
