Government is committed to women empowerment: Whip Dulu

On Saturday afternoon, a dialogue titled 'Effective Participation and Leadership of Women in Policymaking' organized by Khan Foundation was held at a local community center in Natore town. Speaking as the chief guest, Whip of the Jatiya Sangsad and Member of Parliament for Natore-2 constituency Advocate M Ruhul Kuddus Talukdar Dulu said that sustainable development of a state is impossible without ensuring women's rights, education, security, and economic empowerment. The government is committed to ensuring the active participation of women in all fields including education, economy, health, and politics.

He further added that in 1978, martyred President Ziaur Rahman established the Ministry of Women's Affairs, which was one of the first such initiatives in Asia. In BNP's politics, women have never been considered as objects of pity, but as sources of strength. The dialogue was also addressed by District BNP Convener and District Council Administrator Rahim Nawaz,alo Executive Director Shamima Laiju Neela, Khan Foundation Monitoring and Evaluation Officer Md. Salahuddin, and presided over by former reserved seat Member of Parliament Sufia Haque.
