63. Write an essay on 'Prospect of Solar Energy as an Alternative Energy Source in Bangladesh.
Ans :
Title: Prospect of Solar Energy as an Alternative Energy Source in Bangladesh
Introduction : There is significant potential for solar energy in Bangladesh. Bangladesh, a densely
populated and energy-deficient nation, faces challenges of energy access, reliability, and sustainability.
In this context, solar energy emerges as a viable solution with immense potential.
Present Scenerio of Solar Energy in Bangladesh: Bangladesh generates 99% of its energy from fossil
fuels. However, it has several renewable energy targets for 2030 and 2040 that require significant
financial and time investments. Renewable energy production in Bangladesh is extremely low, at 1%
of total generation. As of 2020, solar comprised just one-third of renewable energy production, with a
total annual output of 389 GWh.
Solar Program across the country: Although the total generation numbers are lacklustre, solar has
played a major role in overall electrification rates. The RERED program offered by the government
covers 12% of its rural population, and solar capacity shows an increasing trend. For example, in 2021,
45 MW of solar capacity was added to the country’s grid. Additionally, small-scale solar farms
produce enough electricity for 4 million households, and the country boasts 21 independent solar mini-
grids. This infrastructure includes 1,000 solar irrigation pumps that the government provided to
agricultural workers, enabling less reliance on natural precipitation while helping boost both yields and
income in impoverished areas.While overall solar capacity is low, solar PV power plants are beginning
to show success throughout the country. This will stimulate larger, far-reaching renewable energy
projects.
Prospect of Solar Energy: One of the key advantages of solar energy in Bangladesh is its abundance.
The country experiences ample sunlight throughout the year, making solar power a reliable and
renewable resource. Harnessing solar energy can reduce dependency on fossil fuels, thereby decreasing
greenhouse gas emissions and combating climate change. Furthermore, solar energy projects offer
decentralized solutions, particularly beneficial in rural areas where grid connectivity is limited. Off-
grid solar systems can provide electricity to remote communities, improving livelihoods, education,
and healthcare services.
Government Initiative: The falling costs of solar technology and government incentives for
renewable energy investment enhance the economic viability of solar energy adoption in Bangladesh.
Initiatives such as the installation of solar panels on rooftops, solar irrigation pumps, and solar
microgrids contribute to energy diversification and resilience.
Conclusion: However, challenges such as initial investment costs, technological constraints, and
policy frameworks need to be addressed to realize the full potential of solar energy in Bangladesh.
Collaborative efforts involving government support, private sector involvement, and international
partnerships are crucial for scaling up solar energy initiatives and achieving sustainable energy access
for all Bangladeshis.

2. Write an Essay of Covid-19 Impact on Economy of Bangladesh. 10
[
Ans.
Title: Impact of Covid-19 on Economy of Bangladesh.
Introduction : The COVID-19 pandemic has had profound and multifaceted impacts on the economy
of Bangladesh. As a densely populated country with a large informal sector and significant dependence
on export-oriented industries such as textiles and garments, Bangladesh faced unprecedented
challenges in the wake of the global health crisis.
Impact of Covid-19 : The unprecedented Covid-19 pandemic has caused disruptions to global trade,
business, and education. Bangladesh is equally affected by this contagion. The economic consequences
of the Covid-19 outbreak are tough to handle as the entire of the global supply chain has been
interrupted due to worldwide transportation shutdown. During Covid-19 Bangladesh readymade
garments (RMG) industry had received work order cancellations of nearly $3 billion. Around 2 million
workers in the industries were affected by this. The import and export-oriented companies were also at
risk. The foreign remittance came down and thus it hit the foreign reserves of the country. The tourism
sector also suffered due to travel restrictions, impacting revenue generation and employment
opportunities. Bangladesh fell into a difficult situation because country remained locked down for a
long period. Here, a huge number of people live from hand to mouth. Consistent high growth unabled
to create sufficient jobs in the economy. Due to inequality of income and asset distribution, the
advantages of higher GDP growth was not evident in society.
Government Iniciatives : In response to these challenges, the Bangladeshi government implemented
various stimulus packages and relief measures to support businesses, workers, and vulnerable
populations. The government declared a Tk 5,000 crore incentive package to mitigate the losses in the
RMG sector. Furthermore, Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina unveiled a Tk 72,750 crore stimulus
package, including the previously declared Tk 5,000 crore package, to address the economic impacts
of the coronavirus outbreak. However, the long-term economic recovery remains uncertain,
necessitating continued efforts to mitigate the impact of COVID-19 and build resilience against future
crises.
Conclusion : Moving forward, Bangladesh faces the task of rebuilding its economy with a focus on
resilience and inclusivity. Investments in healthcare, digital infrastructure, and diversified industries
could bolster the economy's resilience to future crises while ensuring equitable growth for all segments
of society. Collaboration with international partners and innovative policy interventions will be vital in
navigating the uncertain economic landscape post-Covid-19.

A. Write an Essay of 'The Challenges of Achieving Middle Income Country Status for Bangladesh.' 15
[
Ans.
Title: How can Bangladesh cope up with the challenges after achieving Middle Income Country
Status.
Introduction : After decades of strong growth, Bangladesh is seeking to move to the next level of
prosperity. The United Nations Committee on Development Policy (UN-CDP) determined in February
2021 that Bangladesh has satisfied all three requirements to graduate from the category of Least
Developed Country (LDC). Gross National Income (GNI), Human Assets Index (HAI), and Economic
and Environmental Vulnerability Index (EVI) are the criteria for graduation, and they assess a
country's income levels, human assets, and ability to adapt to economic and environmental challenges.
Challenges that Bangladesh may face after achieving Middle Income Country Status:
While graduating from LDC status is a source of pride for Bangladeshis, it may also bring certain
difficulties. For example, Bangladesh might lose roughly 14 percent of its annual export profits – or
USD 5.73 billion – if preferential market benefits such as Duty-Free and Quota-Free (DFQF) access
under the Generalised System of Preferences are lost (GSP). This might have a negative impact on
Bangladesh's garments exports. Furthermore, Bangladesh will no longer be eligible for LDC-specific
special and differential treatment under the World Trade Organisation (WTO) after graduation.
Perhaps more importantly, following this economic shift, Bangladesh will no longer be eligible for
grants and soft loans under the official development aid (ODA) it has received since 1971. The loss of
access to LDC-exclusive concessional funding may potentially have a negative impact on the country's
development prospects. This has the potential to impede Bangladesh's remarkable progress in recent
years.
Furthermore, as a result of graduation, Bangladesh would lose access to specialised funding
possibilities such as the Green Climate Fund (GCF), which is critical for developing resilience against
the increasing danger of climate change. Because Bangladesh is expected to be one of the worst hit
countries by the climate catastrophe, losing GCF financing might be a big setback.
Bangladesh’s Responsibility to cope up with these challenges: Firstly, Bangladesh must focus on
diversifying its economy to reduce dependence on a few key industries, such as textiles and garments,
which have been driving economic growth thus far. This entails promoting innovation,
entrepreneurship, and investments in sectors with high growth potential, such as information
technology, agriculture, and renewable energy.
Secondly, improving infrastructure is crucial for enhancing competitiveness and facilitating economic
growth. Investments in transportation, energy, and telecommunications infrastructure are necessary to
support industrial expansion, facilitate trade, and attract foreign investment.
Thirdly, addressing governance issues, including corruption, inefficiency, and bureaucratic red tape, is
essential for creating an enabling business environment and fostering investor confidence.
Strengthening institutions, promoting transparency, and enhancing the rule of law are critical steps in
this regard.
Furthermore, Bangladesh must prioritize sustainable development to mitigate environmental
degradation and climate change risks. Promoting renewable energy, adopting green technologies, and
implementing climate-resilient infrastructure projects are essential for achieving long-term
sustainability and resilience.
Conclusion : In conclusion, while achieving middle-income status is a significant achievement for
Bangladesh, it also brings forth a new set of challenges that require proactive and coordinated efforts
to overcome. By diversifying the economy, improving infrastructure, addressing governance issues,
investing in human capital, promoting sustainable development, and tackling social challenges,
Bangladesh can navigate the complexities of its new economic status.

Today marks the 49 years of our existence as a sovereign nation. On this day in 1971, our struggle for
independence following a nine-month war was rewarded with a richly deserved victory that came at
the cost of unimaginable loss of life and persecution. We should always remember with a deep sense of
gratitude, the enormous contributions of the freedom fighters who fought and bled on the ground and
the leading role of Bangabandhu and his four trusted lieutenants in steering us to this moment,
together, their efforts and sacrifices, as well as that of countless other individuals both at home and
abroad, paved the way for the fulfilment of the Bengali dream for self-determination.

Providing enough energy to meet an ever-increasing demand is one of the greatest problems the world
is now facing. Energy is the key to an industrialized economy, which calls for a doubling of electrical
output every ten to twelve years. Meanwhile, the days of cheap, abundant and environmentally
acceptable power may be coming to an end. Coal is plentiful but polluting, natural gas is scarce, oil is
not found every where. Nuclear power now appears costly and risky.
It's been a long time since Bangladesh started exporting food products to the United states.
Export Operations started there by exporting cans, juice, mango bars and biscuits. Since then, demand
for Bangladesh products has been increasing in the United States. Now these products have become
popular among the people of different countries including Mexicans, Europeans living in America
apart from the people of the subcontinent.

Ans:
Fashion trends have indeed become increasingly prevalent in contemporary society, while there are
some argue that these trends primarily exist to sell clothes, I believe that the reality lies somewhere in
between.
It is true that fashion trends are heavily influenced by commercial interests, with designers and retailers
frequently promoting new styles to stimulate consumer demand and drive sales. However, it is
essential to recognize that fashion trends also serve as a form of cultural expression and creative
exploration.
Moreover, fashion trends can play a role in fostering a sense of belonging and identity within
communities. People often find solidarity and connection through shared aesthetic preferences. For
example, Bangladeshi men traditionally wear Panjabi-lungi in rural areas and shirt-pant or suits in
urban areas. Shari is the main and traditional dress of Bangladeshi women. While some young female
also wears salwar kameez. Besides, Bangladeshi people celebrate Pohela Boishakh, the Bengali New
Year, by dressing in traditional clothes such as women wear sarees while men can opt for Panjabi
or dhoti. Bangladeshi tribe people were their traditional dresses.
On the other hand, the idea of dressing in what one likes and feels comfortable resonates with the
concept of personal style and self-expression. Embracing individuality allows people to cultivate a
unique sense of identity and confidence in their appearance, irrespective of prevailing trends.
Additionally, prioritizing comfort and practicality can enhance overall well-being and confidence, as
one feels at ease in their clothing choices.
Ultimately, I believe that the best approach lies in striking a balance between embracing fashion trends
and staying true to one's personal style and comfort. Rather than blindly following every trend,
individuals can selectively incorporate elements that resonate with their aesthetic preferences and
lifestyle. By doing so, they can navigate the dynamic landscape of fashion with authenticity, creativity,
and self-assurance.
52. Some people believe that computers are mice a hindrance than a help in today's would. Others
feed that they are such indispensable tools that they would not be able to live or work
without then. To what extent do you agree or disagree with these statement? You should write at least 100
words. Use your ides, knowledge and experience and support your arguments with examples and
with relevant evidence.
PART-C Written Part 33
Ans:
The assertion that computers are more of a hindrance than a help, or conversely that they
are indispensable tools, reflects a spectrum of perspectives influenced by personal
experiences and societal contexts. While both viewpoints hold merit, I lean towards the belief that
computers are indispensable tools, albeit with some potential drawbacks.
In contemporary society, computers have become deeply integrated into various facets of
life, from education and healthcare to commerce and entertainment. They facilitate efficient
communication, enable advanced data analysis, and empower innovation in numerous fields. For
instance, in healthcare, computers aid in diagnosis, treatment planning, and medical research,
ultimately improving patient outcomes.
However, it's essential to acknowledge the challenges associated with computer use. Issues such as
digital addiction, privacy concerns, and the digital divide warrant attention. Additionally, reliance on
computers may lead to skill atrophy in traditional methods and exacerbate
inequalities if access is unequal.
Nevertheless, the benefits of computers outweigh their drawbacks. They
enhance productivity, facilitate learning, and foster global connectivity. With proper regulation and
education, we can harness the transformative potential of computers while addressing associated
challenges, making them indispensable tools in today's world.
31. Some people believe that international sporting events are the ideal opportunity to show the
world the qualities of the hosting nation. Others believe that these events are mainly a large
unjustifiable expense. To what extent do you agree of disagree? Use your ideas, knowledge and
experience and support your opinion with examples and relevant evidences. You should write
about 150 words.
Ans:
International sporting events serve as a double-edged sword, offering both opportunities to showcase a
nation's qualities and presenting significant expenses. While they provide a platform for host countries
to exhibit their culture, infrastructure, and hospitality to a global audience, the financial burden
associated with organizing such events can be substantial
On one hand, events like the Olympics or the FIFA World Cup allow host nations to spotlight their
achievements, attract tourism, and bolster national pride. For instance, the FIFA World Cup 2022 in
Qatar highlighted Middle East's economic Strenth and their cultural heritage, leaving a lasting
impression on the world stage.
On the other hand, the costs involved in hosting these events, including construction of new football
venues, security measures, and infrastructure upgrades, often lead to budget overruns and strain on
public finances. The 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil, for instance, faced criticism for its exorbitant
expenses amidst social and economic challenges.
Ultimately, while international sporting events offer opportunities for nations to shine, careful
consideration of their economic feasibility and long-term benefits is essential to ensure that they do not
become unjustifiable financial burdens.

1. In Bangladesh, Nowadays 80% of people have access to the power facility, whereas it was only
20% of people in 2000. Though natural gas is the main raw material for power generation, the
use of renewable energy like hydropower, solar and wind power is being increased. Recently,
Bangladesh has introduced new 'Energy Policy' through which it is proceeding towards
renewable sources of power. 5
[
Ans.
Bangladesh has made significant strides in improving access to power over the past few decades. From
a mere 20% of the population having access to power in 2000, the nation now boasts an impressive
80% coverage. This substantial increase underscores the government's commitment to enhancing
infrastructure and meeting the energy needs of its citizens.
One notable aspect of Bangladesh's energy landscape is its increasing focus on renewable energy
sources. Despite natural gas traditionally being the primary raw material for power generation, the
country is now embracing hydropower, solar, and wind energy. This shift towards renewables aligns
with global efforts to combat climate change and reduce reliance on fossil fuels.
The recent introduction of a new Energy Policy signals Bangladesh's proactive approach to
transitioning towards sustainable energy sources. This policy framework emphasizes the importance of
diversifying the energy mix and promoting the use of renewables. By harnessing the power of wind,
sunlight, and water, Bangladesh aims to reduce its carbon footprint and build a more resilient energy
infrastructure.
This transition to renewable energy not only mitigates environmental concerns but also enhances
energy security and fosters economic growth. By investing in clean energy technologies and
infrastructure, Bangladesh is not only ensuring a sustainable future for its citizens but also positioning
itself as a leader in the global energy transition. With continued dedication and innovation, Bangladesh
is poised to achieve even greater success in its pursuit of a greener, more sustainable energy future.
