The institution's students and teachers visited Bangabhaban under the recently issued 'Policy on Bangabhaban visits by students of educational institutions, 2026'.
The President told the students that Bangladesh is not a very rich country, so everyone must study attentively and acquire knowledge.
He also said that whatever profession they joined in future, they must carry out their duties with professionalism, honesty and dedication. Rising above personal interest, they must think first of the country's development and people's welfare.
Addressing the students, the President said they must learn about the country's history, heritage and the method of running the state. Drawing inspiration from history, they must prepare themselves for the future.
The President said, 'You have come to Bangabhaban from so far away, you have come to learn about Bangabhaban — I am very happy about that. Thank you all.'
He said the programme had been launched to give students an idea of the country, its history and how the state is run. Through it, students would be able to draw inspiration from history and learn about the country's heritage.
The President asked the students about their interest in Bangabhaban's various installations and historical relics. He asked whether they had toured the Toshakhana, the zoo and other installations. Noting that photographs of many distinguished people alongside former presidents are preserved at Bangabhaban, he stressed the importance of learning about these historical mementoes.
