RAJSHAHI, July 3, 2025 (BSS)- School students from now on will be given 
technical knowledge side by side with theoretical ones for making them 
skilled manpower.

To this end, a technical laboratory has been opened for the vocational branch 
students at Naohata Government High School under Paba upazila in the district 
today.

Upazila Project Implementation Office as part of its rural infrastructure 
maintenance (TR) project established the laboratory for providing practical 
education to the students.
 
Project Implementation Officer Abu Bashir said they normally worked for 
construction and renovation of rural roads, bridges and culverts under the TR 
project.

But, at present, the government has given the highest importance to human 
resource development as the skilled and educated citizens are the best 
infrastructure of the country.

From the idea, they are implementing the project for uplifting the students 
through technical and vocational equipment.

"Basically, we are trying to provide world standard scopes to the students 
after the best use of government money," he added.

Omor Ali, headmaster of the school, said each of the machineries and 
instruments of the laboratory is modern and time-fitting and the venture will 
contribute a lot towards enriching the students with technical knowledge.

Upazila Nirbahi Officer (UNO) Arafat Aman Aziz opened the laboratory as the 
chief guest saying, "There is no way but technical knowledge to face the 
challenges of the fourth industrial revolution."
