UNB, Dhaka :
Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina on Saturday directed the Social Welfare Ministry to take steps to ensure shelter
and education for the country’s all children, including orphans and street urchins.
“I don’t want to see any child passing days in a miserable condition living alongside streets without going to school…we’ll have to ensure a better life for them all,” she said.
The Prime Minister was speaking at the National Social Services Day 2015 and inaugural of the Social Services Week 2015 at Osmani Memorial Auditorium in the city.
Sheikh Hasina said, her government is implementing massive programmes for the welfare of the ultra poor, physically-challenged people, windows, abandoned women and shelter-less people as it believes in the welfare commoners.
She said, if these people get some money in their hands the social status of these people will improve a lot.
Hasina also mentioned that the government has taken programmes for the marginalised people, hijra (transgender), dalit (untouchable) and bede (nomadic) communities of the country as they are usually neglected socially and economically.
She said, it would not take too long to fulfill people’s basic rights food, cloths, shelter,
medicare and education-as the government has taken numerous programmes to this end.
“We want to make sure that the country’s people will get their five basic rights …some of those have been already been achieved….we’ll be able to attain more, we will be able to achieve the rest targets, it’ ll take no longer time to reach the target,” Hasina said.
