Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina on Sunday emphasised representing the country's real history of victory and achievements before the generation to generation to inspire them to work for the nation being imbued with patriotism.
"After knowing the real history, they (generation to generation) not only will be imbued with patriotism but also will get inspiration to contribute to the country's people instead of self-interest, as a noble spirit will come which is needed for us," she said.
The premier made the remarks while addressing the opening ceremony of a scroll painting on Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman and its exhibition at the National Museum as the chief guest, joining virtually from her official residence Ganabhaban.
She said the government has developed the country a lot from 2009 to 2022 as the lives of the people have changed significantly.
She mentioned that poverty has been reduced while people are getting education and other facilities where development has been spread to the rural areas.
"With this development, I think the sacrifices and struggles of the people behind these achievements will be known by others," she said.
The prime minister said many occasions (days) are being observed in the country as the new generation could not know the real significance and history through those events.
Sheikh Hasina said the country observes February 21 as International Mother Language Day and Martyrs' Day, historic March 7 speech of the Father of the Nation, brutal assassination of Bangabandhu on August 15 and genocide of 1971.
