Educational institutions asked to plant trees

Directorate of Secondary and Higher Secondary Education (DSHE) has instructed all educational institutions to carry out a tree plantation programme on the occasion of World Environment Day.

The DSHE gave the instruction in a letter on Tuesday. 

However, the World Environment Day-2024 is being observed in the country as elsewhere in the world with a view to creating awareness about environmental pollution.

Different government and non-government organisations (NGOs) as well as educational institutions have chalked out elaborate programmes to observe the day.

President Mohammed Shahabuddin and Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina issued separate messages wishing success of all programmes of the day.
