CA for ensuring quality education to each girl child
City Desk :
Chief Adviser Professor Dr Muhammad Yunus on Tuesday said every girl child must be ensured safety, quality education and nutrition and must be transformed into skilled human resources as they will be the future mothers, future citizens.
“About 45 percent of the total population of Bangladesh is children, almost half of whom are girls. Therefore, our future mothers, future citizens – these girls must be ensured safety, quality education and nutrition and must be transformed into skilled human resources,” he said.
The chief adviser said this in a message on the eve of National Girl Child Day-2025, reports BSS.
He said these girls are the dream of the future who will work fearlessly for the welfare of the motherland, and will stand with Bangladesh with their heads held high before the world. Prof Yunus said National Girl Child Day-2025 will be observed nationwide with the theme “I am a girl child – I build dreams, I fight with courage, I work for the welfare of the country”.
“I think this is a very timely befitting theme,” he said. He extended his heartfelt greetings to all the girl children of Bangladesh and their guardians. The chief adviser expressed his thanks and gratitude to everyone involved in the implementation of the programmes organized on the occasion of this day. With a view to make democratic transformation of Bangladesh, adolescent girls and women were at the forefront of the mass uprising of the students-workers-people. They showed us the dream of building a new Bangladesh, he said.
Prof Yunus said the current interim government is working to ensure the rights and dignity of all citizens of the country, regardless of gender.
