Rajshahi 4 May 2026.
Paba-Mohanpur Member of Parliament Advocate Shafiqul Haque Milan has given special emphasis on sports development and moral education to take the country's sports arena to an honorable place in the world court and make the future generation responsible citizens.
He said this at the closing and prize distribution ceremony of the 'Primary School Gold Cup Football Tournament (Boys and Girls) 2026' organized by the Upazila Primary Education Department at Paba and Mohanpur in Rajshahi on Monday (May 4) afternoon.
On the occasion, MP Shafiqul Haque Milan said, "In addition to physical and mental development, every child and teenager should be educated about their religious values. Without proper moral education, young people can go astray. Therefore, this step is very important to build 'people like humans' who are able to lead the future."
Emphasizing the importance of sports, he further said, "Sports teach the youth to work as a team and to be united. Like the organized power of student and labor societies in third world countries, the collective spirit of a team is the key to victory on the field of play. This learning to wrest victory through proper technique and regular practice against the opposition will help them succeed in their future workplaces."
At this time, he informed about the plan to raise the sport to a new level by gradually increasing the opportunity to participate in various events and ensure proper environment for the sports arena.
