Singhora School Development

"A school development project to improve the

A True Story of Proactive Village People - by Motahar Ahmed, Project initiator:

So, they went to someone whom they believed as capable of doing the job. Late Mr. Akhter Hossain Khan, the founding President of Singhora High School, was that man. He fully devoted last few years of his life toward this project and died in the school vicinity while working on it; only forty miles but four long hours apart from his Dhaka residence.
