UNB, Dhaka :
Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina on Sunday urged the country’s women not to create problems in their families while trying to realise their rights as everyone has the responsibility to the family.
“Your [women] rights have to be realised but be careful that there shouldn’t be any unrest in the family in the name of realising rights,” she said.
The Prime Minister said this while she was addressing a programme marking the Begum Rokeya Day and distribution of Begum Rokeya Padak 2018 at the Bangabandhu International Conference Centre (BICC).
She said everyone has the responsibility to the family and society, and everybody should understand their respective responsibilities. “There should be a sense of proportion… this is the most important virtue.”
Sheikh Hasina asked the women of the country to maintain their families while attaining their respective positions at the workplace.
The Prime Minister stressed the importance of ensuring the scope for women to flourish their merits and talents. “Women should get their place and scope, and they also should properly utilise their chances as no one gives a space to others.”
Referring to well-educated women, the Prime Minister asked them to give proper education to their children so that they could be worthy citizens of the country.
“Stay alert so that your children don’t involve in militancy, terrorism and drugs…you’ll have to build friendly relations with your children so that they share everything comfortably with you,” she said.
Recalling the great role played by women during the Liberation War, Hasina said Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman had taken various steps for women’s emancipation and their development alongside rehabilitating the mothers and sisters who suffered brutalities in the hands of Pakistani occupation forces and their local collaborators.
