'Stop coaching business'

A Correspondent, Rangpur
Bangladesh Gono Forum Rangpur unit yesterday formed a human chain in front of Rangpur City Corporation, demanding ban on coaching business. They observed the programme for an hour from 11:00am. Among others, Gono Forum Rangpur district unit leader Anwar Hossain Bablu, Mozammel Hossain Minty and Humayun Kabir spoke at the human chain. The speakers demanded an end to commercial coaching and steps for quality education in all educational institutions of the district. They alleged that most of the teachers at the educational institutions in the district especially of government schools and colleges, were engaged in coaching business. The teachers skip their classroom duties and tactfully force the students to go to their coaching centres for private tuition, they said.
