Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina today urged the private sector to patronise the sports saying the sector demand their support for its development.
“I believe that alongside the government’s patronage, private sponsorship is needed for the evolvement of the country’s sports and culture,” she said while addressing the Sheikh Kamal National Sports Council (NSC) Award-2023 distribution ceremony at Osmani Memorial Auditorium here.
The premier insisted that the country would not witness the expected development of sports and cultural arena without the private sector initiatives and supports and added “I hope you (private sector) will stay beside the country’s sports and cultural sectors”.
The event coincided with the birth anniversary of Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman’s eldest son Shaheed Sheikh Kamal, a 1971 veteran who is also known for his extra ordinary role in the development of newborn country’s sports and cultural fields.
She said despite limited facilities Bangladeshi players were bringing glory and reputation for the country and the enhanced patronage could enable them to earn more pride for the nation.বিস্তারিত
