This quality education system will be introduced in 150 more schools in remote areas very soon, Supradip said.

Calling for maintaining peace and stability, Supradip said, "The majority of the people of the Chittagong Hill Tracts are not in favour of conflict, we are in favour of peace. This country belongs to all of us and no one can harm the country alone. Our goal is to create an environment for a peaceful election and build a prosperous Bangladesh with united efforts."
