BNP Joint Secretary General Shahid Uddin Chowdhury Annie has called for a united social movement to eradicate drug abuse from Lakshmipur and across Bangladesh. Speaking as chief guest at a scholarship award ceremony organized by Lakshmipur Ideal Foundation, Annie said that drug dealers are few in number but can be eliminated if society raises a collective voice against them. He emphasized that awareness and community participation are essential, as no elected representative can achieve a drug-free society alone. Addressing students, Annie encouraged them to pursue diverse careers such as doctors, engineers, teachers, and civil servants, urging them to think positively and set clear goals. The event also recognized 200 scholarship recipients out of 1,500 participants, with top students receiving laptops and awards. The program was attended by local educators and BNP leaders.
