Science, Information and Communication technology can help the country prosper along with alleviating poverty. In the world, many countries have attained self-sufficiency during the last few decades through only development of the sector.

Speakers made this observation while addressing the inaugural ceremony of the three-day ‘29th Science, Information and Communication Technology Fair’ on the Collegiate School premises in Rajshahi Thursday.

“We have no alternative to enrich the sector for taking the nation towards prosperity in all perspectives,” they said and called for giving due attention to establish a knowledge and science-based society.

Prof Dr. Monzur Hossain of Botany Department of Rajshahi University, one of the pioneers in tissue culture research and innovation in the country, addressed the ceremony as the key- speaker. He said the researches, which are being carried out in different sectors in the country, should be taken to the field level for their successful application.

In this context, he also said due to lack of proper initiative many of the research findings could not be used for the nation’s benefit.

Deputy Commissioner Ibrahim Khalil, Additional Deputy Commissioner (Education and Development) Satyandra Kumar Sarker and headmaster of the school Nurjahan Begum also addressed the session, among others.

Various educational institutions and science clubs have set up 24 stalls projecting different types of small-scale scientific innovations in the fair.
