Loading...Many tourists who come to visit here hear the name of the BARD organization and think that there will be many birds here.Such a name it should be like this. The road is surrounded by shadowy, very deep compassion. Flowers and orchards of various colors on both sides. The BARD is surrounded by the chirping of birds and the smell of flowers. Krishnacura and Rangana are peeking out of the huge green space. This BARD was built by Dr. Akhtar Hamid Khan. BARD is basically a training academy for people engaged in various professions.
Bangladesh Rural Development Academy in short BARD. Such a clean institution, such a beautiful artistic infrastructure, a walkway with a roof to move from one building to another, and a flower garden of various colors is magnificently eye-catching .
The academy is located on 156 acres of land in the picturesque green rural area of Kotbari, 10 km from Comilla city and 3 km west of Comilla bypass Nandanpur on the Dhaka-Chittagong highway at the foot of Lalmai and Shalban hills. The BGB Comilla headquarters, west of the academy; Comilla Cadet College in the south; Shalban Bihar; And the newly established Comilla University; Comilla Polytechnic Institute on the east and Comilla Cantonment on the north.
In my eyes it is a self complete and clean institution. The Bird Campus has a bank, post office, medical center for first aid, VIP suites for 350 people, guest house, forest cottage, 7 hostels including Rani cottage; There are two large cafeterias of high quality for low cost. Shishu Bitan Bird Primary School is the primary school for children; There are sports and recreation centers for recreation, including sports; There is a domed mosque and a modern library.
As soon as you enter the main gate of BARD, you will see a well-decorated mosque. The campus has 25582 trees of 145 rare species. Of these, 61 species have 11449 fruit trees, 43 species have 1286 flowering trees and 41 species have 12847 forest trees. Star apple is one of the 61 species of fruit trees. There is this amazing fruit tree in the mosque premises. The characteristic of this tree is that the two sides of the leaves are two-colored. Which attracts the attention of the trainees who come to BARD from all over the country and abroad. In the quiet evenings, the fox’s hookah hua calls out to tourists / guests / trainees and campus dwellers, but in the morning, the chirping of maby different birds wakes them up. The sight of the lush greenery shimmering in the rays of the sun, it is not possible to understand when the scenary makes its won place on the subconsious mind.
