Human Resources and Bangladesh:

Education is the pre-condition for Human Resources Development. The government of Bangladesh made primary education compulsory for children between the age of six and ten.

Current government projects to promote the education of children in Bangladesh include compulsory primary education for all, free education for girls up to grade 12, stipends for female students, a nationwide integrated education system and food for education literacy movement. A large section of the country’s national budget is set aside to help put these programs into action and to promote education and make it more accessible.

Budget and Human Resources: Human resources is the foundation stone for building social infrastructure. Education and health are the main vehicles for human resources development. It is not possible to bring about accelerated and sustained development without competent human resources.

Conclusion: Population becomes an asset if it can be trained properly and used in productive sectors. A country without skilled manpower is like an empty vessel. So, we should be sincere in providing quality education to every citizen.
