‘Kidney dialysis unit to be launched at Jashore General Hospital’
State Minister for Power, Energy and Mineral Resources Anindya Islam Amit has said that a kidney dialysis unit will be launched at the 250-bed Jashore General Hospital. He said that the process of giving a complete form to the hospital’s coronary care unit is underway.
Amit said these things while speaking as the chief guest at a one-time donation cheque distribution ceremony among the needy and helpless families and poor meritorious students of Jashore Sadar upazila on Friday.
The State Minister said that necessary instructions have been given to the concerned authorities so that the common people can get the benefits of kidney dialysis under government management.
At a program organized at the Sadar Upazila Parishad auditorium funded by the Bangladesh National Social Welfare Council, the State Minister distributed a total of Tk 20 lakh in grant checks of Tk 10,000 each to 200 needy and helpless families and poor meritorious students.
At the time, regarding the fertiliser distribution, Anindya Islam Amit said that instructions were given to reorganise the fertiliser and seed monitoring committee to ensure smooth fertiliser distribution.
No irregularities will be tolerated in fertiliser distribution. In this case, the political or religious identity of the fertiliser dealer will not be taken into consideration.
If any allegations of irregularities are found, the dealership will be canceled and the person concerned will be brought under the law. He said that no person will be deprived of medical services due to lack of money. Similarly, no meritorious student will stop studying due to lack of money.
The current government wants to give this guarantee.
Regarding government allowances, the state minister said that in the past, people had to transact money or protest to get government allowances.
From now on, no one will have to pay money or protest to get any allowance.
Just as if someone transacts money to get allowances, he will not get a card, the person who receives the money will also be brought under the law. He also said that the government wants to ensure accountability to the people in every case.
As a public representative, he himself will be accountable to the people. Similarly, government officials will also have to be accountable to the people.
Aniruddha Roy, Deputy Director of Jashore District Social Services Office, delivered the welcome speech at the program. Sadar Upazila Nirbahi Officer Shahriar Haque presided over the programme.
District BNP General Secretary and District Council Administrator Delwar Hossain Khokon, BNP leaders Golam Reza Dulu, Mizanur Rahman Khan were also present at the time.
