Agriculture Minister Begum Matia Chowdhury urged all to remain alert to protect womenfolk from the grip of militant network.
“Militancy has emerged as a destructive element for the entire world. Women become worst victims due to emergence of militancy,” she said this on Saturday while speaking at a function at Krihsibid Institute of Bangladesh in the city.
Bi-monthly periodical ‘Ananya’ awarded ten women at the function for their outstanding contribution to different fields of society.
