Kishoreganj-2 MP Advocate Md Jalal Uddin urged people to protest wrongdoing involving children rather than dismissing it as someone else’s problem. He made the remarks on Saturday morning as chief guest at the Medha Anneshan Scholarship-2026 award and reception programme at Shimulia Higher Secondary School field in Pakundia upazila, Kishoreganj.

The event was organised by the Md Junayet Bhuiyan Mohon Foundation, which distributed money and certificates to scholarship recipients and honoured meritorious students. Referring to social and cultural decline, Jalal Uddin said failing to stop children’s misconduct could eventually affect one’s own children. He said no wrongdoing should be supported, regardless of who is involved.

The MP said he wanted children to have opportunities to play in fields but return to their mothers before the Maghrib call to prayer. He also said gambling, drug gatherings and drug business should not be allowed on the field after evening, asking residents to guarantee this. School committee president Muhammad Baitullah chaired the programme, while foundation founder and chairman Md Junayet Bhuiyan Mohon delivered the welcome speech.
