State Minister for ICT Division Zunaid Ahmed Palak on Saturday said the ongoing aid distribution process will become more transparent and easier through the formation of database of the poor and unemployed people.
“Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina is working relentlessly to overcome the ongoing coronavirus crisis with her limited resources. We would be able to tackle any situation by making coordination between institutional and personal assistance alongside the government. We have to tackle the corona situation through proper coordination,” he said. The state minister said these while speaking at a views exchange meeting on health management, aid distribution and law and order at Natore district administration office.
Palak said the government has to provide aid to 22 percent poor population and 30 percent unemployed people in the next three months. “If we can bring these people under a database and use QR code while distributing aid, we would be able to make the process fair and success. ICT Division would provide necessary assistance in this regard,” he added.
