Rasheda K. Chowdhury, Executive Director of Campaign for Popular Education, stated that despite an increase in the education sector allocation, the government remains far from fulfilling its election pledges. She emphasized that allocation alone is not enough and called for timely fund release and good governance in expenditure. She made these remarks on Wednesday afternoon at a press briefing titled “How Is the Education Budget: Reality and Public Expectation,” organized by the Campaign for Popular Education.

The main paper at the event was presented by the organization’s Deputy Director, Dr. Mostafizur Rahman. Other speakers included Dr. Fahmida Khatun, Executive Director of the Centre for Policy Dialogue (CPD); Dr. Syed Shahadat Hossain, Professor at the University of Dhaka’s Institute of Statistical Research and Training; and Dr. Imran Matin, Executive Director of the BRAC Institute of Governance and Development (BIGD).
