Awards & Awardee

 Month wise Award(পুরস্কার) and Awardee (প্রাপক)

প্রিয় বন্ধুরা, যে কোনো প্রতিযোগিতা মূলক বা সরকারি চাকরির পরীক্ষায় সফল হতে গেলে General Awareness/Current Affairs বিষয়ে পারদর্শী হওয়া খুব জরুরি। বেশিরভাগ পরীক্ষাতেই সাম্প্রতিক ঘটনাবলী বা বিশ্বের কোথায় কি ঘটে চলেছে তার থেকে প্রশ্ন এসেই থাকে। তার মধ্যে Banking News, New Appointments, Book Launches, Award and Honor Received, Government Policy প্রভৃতি হল অন্যতম। আমরা এখানে প্রতি মাসের ভিত্তিতে গুরুত্বপূর্ণ পুরস্কার ও পুরস্কার প্রাপকের তালিকা দিলাম।
