A clash and chase-counter chase occurred between students of Dhaka College and City College in the capital's Science Lab area. This stopped traffic in the capital's Science Lab area. Additional police and the army have been deployed at the scene.

The clash began after 3 pm on Wednesday (November 20).

After receiving the news, the police reached the spot and are trying to control the situation, but tension still persists.

In order to create a generation of entrepreneurs in the country, the country's education system must be such that creativity is developed, said Chief Adviser Professor Muhammad Yunus.

Stating that people are born entrepreneurs, he said, and our education system produces job seekers. This is a flawed education system.

The Chief Adviser made this comment while visiting the Education Ministry's office at the Secretariat in the capital on Wednesday (November 20).

He said, our education system should be reformed in such a way that it can develop a generation as entrepreneurs. We need an education system that will help students become creative people. The potential for creativity in our youth must be fulfilled.

Professor Muhammad Yunus said, Bangladesh should not create an education system where only the emphasis is on exam marks. He said, everyone should realize that the exam marks are not everything.

The Chief Adviser called for reducing the generation gap in Bangladeshi society, saying, "We must understand the language of the new generation, their aspirations and their thought processes." Professor Yunus said, "We must understand the language and thought processes of the youth. We need to know how the older generation can share their experiences with the younger generation." He said, "The gap between the young and the older generation is increasing, which will create problems. We must reduce the gap in thought and perception between the two generations." He also stressed the need to include family values in our national curriculum. Education Adviser Dr. Wahiduddin Mahmud and Education Secretary Siddique Jobayer were present at the Chief Adviser's meeting with senior officials of the Ministry of Education.

The Advisory Council of the interim government led by Professor Dr. Muhammad Yunus has approved the draft of the International Crimes Tribunal Amendment Ordinance. This will allow the International Crimes Tribunal to recommend action against political parties on charges of crimes against humanity.

The draft was approved at a meeting of the Advisory Council chaired by the Chief Adviser at the Secretariat on Wednesday (November 20) afternoon. Almost all the advisers participated in this meeting, the first held at the Secretariat after the formation of the interim government.

It is learned that the Advisory Council has approved the draft of the International Crimes Tribunal Amendment Ordinance raised in the meeting with the proposal that the International Crimes Tribunal will be able to recommend the trial of political parties on charges of genocide.

After the formation of the interim government, regular meetings of the Advisory Council were held at the Chief Adviser's residence Jamuna and the Chief Adviser's office, but this was the first time that the meeting was held at the Advisory Council conference room at the Bangladesh Secretariat, the center of administration.
