The Sunamganj Textile Institute, a long-cherished dream of the Sunamganj Haor region's people, is on the verge of its inauguration, bringing hope and excitement to the local community. MA Mannan, Member of Parliament for Sunamganj-3 Constituency, lovingly known as "Haor Ratna," has played a pivotal role in turning this dream into a reality, illuminating Sunamganj with a beacon of development.

The institute itself is an impressive four-story structure, complete with separate hostels for male and female students, a principal's residence, staff accommodations, labs, a workshop, a library, and more. This modern educational facility is expected to provide valuable opportunities for the Haor community.

Local civil society recognizes the importance of job creation for sustainable economic development. Technical education is seen as a vital pathway to achieving this goal, offering opportunities for employment and self-employment within the country and even abroad. Planning Minister MA Mannan's efforts to establish the textile institute have earned the gratitude of the people of Sunamganj.

The Principal of Sunamganj Textile Institute, Mahmudul Hasan, reports that 123 students have already been admitted, and the admission process continues. The institute has filled key positions, including teaching and administrative staff, with classes scheduled to begin in early December.

Samiul Kabir, President of Shantiganj Press Club, expresses immense gratitude for the realization of this long-awaited dream. The inauguration of the institute promises to bring modern education to the Haor region.

Hasnat Hossain, the Private Political Secretary to the planning minister and General Secretary of Shantiganj Upazila Awami League, highlights the significant transformation in Shantiganj thanks to the Planning Minister's development initiatives. The inauguration of the Textile Institute is expected to open doors to career-oriented education and further development.
