The Directorate of Madrasa Education in Bangladesh has issued a directive requiring all madrasas under its jurisdiction to organize daily assemblies and sports activities. The instruction, sent on Monday from the directorate’s Training and Physical Education Branch, was signed by Director (Training and Development) Md. Abul Kalam Talukder. It emphasizes that the government is committed to expanding sports practices at grassroots and educational levels to build a youth-driven, prosperous Bangladesh.

According to the directive, assistant teachers of physical education in each madrasa must ensure daily assemblies and sports with active student participation. In institutions where the physical education assistant teacher post is vacant, the head of the madrasa must temporarily assign a qualified and sports-proficient teacher from among existing staff to carry out these duties. The directorate also instructed that necessary steps be taken to fill the vacant posts according to regulations.

The directive reflects the government’s broader initiative to promote physical education and youth engagement across educational institutions nationwide.
