Fascist regime destroyed every sector, especially education; interim did nothing about it: PM
|NUTSHELL TODAY DESK
BIONIC READING
In a Nutshell:
- Tarique Rahman spoke at the closing of parliament's second session Wednesday.
- The fascist regime destroyed all institutions, with education among the hardest hit, he said.
- The interim government took no steps to address it, according to the prime minister.
- His government will allocate 5 percent of GDP to education every year.
Why it Matters
This was the prime minister's closing address to parliament's second session, a setting where governments signal priorities. Alongside the education pledge, he laid out targets including a near trillion dollar economy by 2034, 250 million trees planted, and cleared farm loans for 1.3 million farmers.
What We Think
Faulting both the fascist era and the interim government lets Tarique Rahman claim the rebuild story for himself alone, no rival reformer gets credit. The 5 percent pledge works more as a moral marker than a technical target. The real test is whether students and teachers feel the change, or just hear a better told version of it.
