Khalid Hossain backs temple-based education in Khulna with scholarships for poor kids

Dr. A.F.M. Khalid Hossain addressed educators about expanding temple-based learning programs across Bangladesh. The Religious Affairs Adviser emphasized equal government backing for both temple and mosque educational initiatives. He announced scholarship opportunities for disadvantaged families seeking better educational access. The official spoke during a Khulna workshop focused on sustainable development and moral instruction. Temple education represents a historical tradition linking worship centers with academic advancement.

Government funding enabled temple construction and bathing facilities in the Taherpur and Sunamganj districts. Financial assistance will extend to struggling religious institutions across the nation. Hossain suggested installing solar energy systems to reduce electricity costs at temple locations. The workshop attracted 290 teachers from educational centers spanning nine regional subdivisions. Officials presented strategic plans for achieving literacy goals through faith-based community programs.

The adviser later traveled to Jashore district for a separate educational visit. He met with students and faculty at the Japchharia Model Madrasa during an evening session. Local administrators and project directors participated in the daylong educational conference.
