NMST Gifts a Telescope to RU Science Club
Rajshahi University (RU) Science Club received a telescope as a gift from the National Museum of Science and Technology-NMST. The Director General of The NMST Mohammad Munir Chowdhury presented this telescope to the newly elected Executive Committee of Rajshahi University Science Club on Monday.
Meanwhile, the Director General stressed the importance of providing cooperation to the Rajshahi University authorities in strengthening the club's organizational activities and providing its infrastructural facilities.
Addressing the newly elected executive committee, Director General Mohammad Munir Chowdhury said that science clubs can play a unique role in creating environmental awareness among the young generation by coming forward against environmental pollution. Besides, science clubs can make students aware at the grass root level and cooperate with government agencies on greening, plantation, safe food, health protection etc. The lead pollution spreading from three wheeler batteries in villages is alarming. In this regard, the Rajshahi University Science Club can engage the young generation to make people aware of the dangers of lead pollution and assist government agencies in science-based waste management. What is not possible with law enforcement agencies alone, but can be achieved with motivational programs and innovative spirit.
Rajshahi University Science Club President Abdul Latif, General Secretary Masud Rana and Treasurer Sheikh Saikat committee members were present on the occasion.
