CUET Staff Association hosts iftar, doa programme
Chattogram University of Engineering and Technology (CUET) Vice-Chancellor Professor Dr Mahmud Abdul Matin Bhuiya said Ramadan is 'a unique time' for self-purification, moral development, and the awakening of social responsibility.
'The holy month reminds us—both as individuals and as institutions—of the importance of value-based living and professional conduct,' he said, adding that Ramadan also teaches compassion and humanity.
The vice-chancellor said it is a moral duty to stand by helpless, poor, and underprivileged people by understanding their hardships. Such empathy and social responsibility are vital for building a humane society, he added.
