Education Minister ANM Ehsanul Hoque Milan on Friday vowed to build a drug free and terror free country, after efforts to ensure an education system without cheating in exams. He said the anti-drug and anti-terror drive will begin from Kachua, just as the anti-cheating movement once started from the same area and later became a national model. The minister made the remarks while speaking to journalists during his first visit to his constituency Kachua in Chandpur after taking charge. He said Kachua will be turned into a drug free, terror free and eve-teasing free upazila in phases. Effective steps will be taken through coordination among the administration, law enforcement agencies and local representatives. “Kachua once set an example across the country as a cheating free area. We now want Kachua to become the model for a drug free and terror free Bangladesh,” he said. The minister also said there are plans to start the journey towards a corruption free society from Kachua. He said the future Bangladesh will be built under the leadership of Prime Minister Tarique Rahman, and all announced programmes will be implemented step by step. Everything in place for 'fair, transparent and smooth' SSC exams: Education Minister Milon ANM Ehsanul Hoque Milan was elected from Chandpur-1 seat with a large margin in the 13th national election. After taking oath, he was appointed education minister and minister for primary and mass education. Chandpur Deputy Commissioner Md Nazmul Islam Sarkar, Superintendent of Police Md Rabiul Hasan and other senior officials of the administration and law enforcement agencies were present.
