He said these things while speaking as the chief guest at a ceremony inaugurating various infrastructure facilities and distributing awards at Bangladesh University of Professionals (BUP) on Wednesday. He further said that human resource development is most important for the country's sustainable development; therefore, the country's huge manpower must be transformed into human resources. Therefore, work is being done with emphasis on technical and vocational education and training (TVET). If workers can be made skilled in technical education and sent abroad, it will also be possible to earn a large amount of foreign currency.

He also said that in the current era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, extensive changes have occurred in the education system. To keep pace with these changes, people must become skilled in areas such as artificial intelligence (AI) and nanotechnology. At the same time, everyone must remain vigilant about the harmful aspects of artificial intelligence.

The minister inaugurated two 14-storey residential halls for students and two 14-storey residential buildings for teachers, officers, and employees. Besides, at the event, BUP students were honored for their outstanding achievements in various competitions; the education minister handed certificates to them. BUP Vice Chancellor Major General Dr. Md. Mahbub-ul Alam presided over the event.
