For this, hygienic corners have been introduced in 21 secondary schools on the initiative of UNO NazmunNahar.
UpazilaNirbahi Officer NazmunNahar said that girls face problems due to lack of adequate facilities in schools during their normal physiological processes. Many girls suffer by keeping the matter under wraps and are at risk of health. Due to this, some are absent from school for two/three days. This severely affects their studies. To overcome this situation, hygienic corners have been introduced. The upazila administration is providing necessary furniture, medicines and sanitary materials to these corners.
