Speaker of the Jatiya Sangsad Dr Shirin Sharmin Chaudhury urged all to come forward to ensure women’s development, saying Bangladesh’s women are delighted in all sectors with their own capabilities.
“If opportunities for them (women) are increased, they will easily move forward with their own capabilities,” she said this on Thursday while speaking as the chief guest at Baishakhi Television Bhaban in the city.
Baishakhi Television accorded a reception for the distinguished women personalities on the occasion of International Women’s Day-2018.
The Speaker asked women to show their capabilities in different sectors, especially national development sector.
“Bangladesh has demonstrated their own talents, labour and competence in different occupations. There is no scope for women to stay behind the initiative,” she said.
Dr Shirin said if women go ahead with their firm passion and confidence, the country will go forward.
Appreciating Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s contribution to women empowerment, she said Bangladesh is now a role model in women empowerment.
