Beximco Pharmaceuticals celebrated Pohela Baishakh 1433 highlighting traditional wisdom and its relevance to health, agriculture, and lifestyle.
The celebration, themed “Bochone Bachun,” drew inspiration from Khonar Bochon and focused on the intersection of culture, dietary practices, and agricultural knowledge, the company said in a press release.
Khona, believed to have lived between the 8th and 12th centuries, is known for her expertise in astronomy and for composing verses that guide farming, weather patterns, and daily life, many of which remain in use in rural Bangladesh.
The company showcased Khonar Bochon in calendars and office decorations, featuring messages on health, discipline, and agricultural practices.
Beximco Pharmaceuticals Chief Operating Officer Rabbu Reza said the sayings remain an integral part of Bengali culture and continue to guide people towards healthier lifestyles.
“Our goal is to ensure a healthy life for the people of Bangladesh through science-based research, modern technology, and responsible pharmaceutical manufacturing,” he said.
He said the company is working across prevention and treatment to deliver reliable and sustainable healthcare solutions.
He also expressed optimism that the country would move towards a healthier future in the new year.
