State Minister Biren Shikder asked the officials and others concerned to expedite the youth development activities for making the unemployed youths as competent work forces for freeing the nation from the curse of poverty.
He said the government level youth improvement programs and related other activities must be more need-oriented so that the target groups could derive total benefits of the programs.
“We have enormous scopes to make the jobless youths including female self-reliant through involving them in various income generating activities like garments, embroidery, fishery, dairy and poultry,” he added.
Biren Shikder said the government of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has been working relentlessly to build Bangladesh as a developed and middle-income nation.
