Guwahati: Speaking as the chief guest at the students felicitation programme organised by the Minority Welfare Society (MWS) in Guwahati, Abu Saleh Najmuddin, former Health Minister of Assam said, “Any community that does not accord importance to education is bound to remain backward. A community’s empowerment can come only from acquiring information and knowledge.”
He congratulated the students who did exceptionally well in their Board and University examinations and urged them to give something back to the society when they become productive and get settled down in life.
