Bangladesh Teachers Association (BTA) has demanded the nationalization of secondary education immediately in order to eliminate inequality between government and non-government institutions.
The association made the demand in a rally in front of Jatiya Press Club in capital Dhaka on Saturday.
In the rally, teacher leaders said teachers of private educational institutions under MPO (Monthly Pay Order) are neglected in enjoying salary and other facilities compared to government employees.
That is why they, in the program, called on the government to accept their demand to nationalize secondary education with a view to improving the country's education.
