To mark the Victory Day, a one-day sports competition with the participation of street children, organised by Population Services and Training Centre, was held yesterday at the ground adjacent to the Kisholoy School in Mohammadpur.
The competition got underway through hoisting of the national flag with former Bangladesh cricket captains Habibul Bashar and Khaled Mashud attending the ceremony.
Bashar urged the street children not to feel neglected as the whole country was with them. He also hoped that future leaders of the country would come from this group of people.
Mashud called the street children to look after their security first and then look forward to availing the opportunities they would get in future.
