Architects in Faridpur Demand Permanent Training Venue

Architects in Faridpur are facing a significant challenge as they do not have a dedicated training venue in the area, leading to the need to conduct training sessions in various locations. This lack of a permanent training venue has prompted architects to voice their demand for a solution to this issue.

Architects Federation Celebrates Youth Festival in Faridpur

The Architects Federation is actively working towards building a new Bangladesh with the slogan “Come, let’s change the country, let’s change the world” at the forefront of their goals. In line with this vision, the Federation recently organized a vibrant youth festival in Faridpur, collaborating with the District Sports Association to host a series of events at the Faridpur District Stadium.

The festivities kicked off with a colorful rally in the morning, starting from the District Administrator’s office and culminating at the stadium grounds. Following the rally, a traditional sweetmeat festival was held, and the main guest of honor for the event was the District Administrator, Mohammad Kamrul Hasan Molla. The event also saw the presence of special guests such as Kazi Rajib Uddin Ahmed Chapal, the General Editor of the Bangladesh Architects Federation, along with members of the Federation’s Executive Committee, Faruk Dali and Masudur Rahman Chunnu.

Kazi Rajib Uddin Ahmed Chapal, the General Editor of the Architects Federation, emphasized the importance of establishing a permanent training venue to facilitate all related activities once and for all. He expressed gratitude for the support and cooperation extended by the Faridpur District Administrator, Mohammad Kamrul Hasan Molla, assuring that the Federation would address all relevant issues in collaboration with the district administration.

The day-long competition saw the participation of 28 architects, including 13 males and 15 females. Abdur Rahman Abir emerged victorious in the senior male division, while Mehzabin Tuba and Ruma Akhtar clinched the gold in the senior and junior female divisions, respectively. The winners were honored at the end of the competition.
