Noting that women drivers are more careful and respectful of the law than men, the minister said the government is increasing opportunities for women drivers. BRAC was the first to start the process of making women drivers. Women are more careful than men when driving; They are more respectful of traffic laws. So the government wants to increase the number of female drivers. Welcoming the joint venture between BRAC and the World Bank to prevent road accidents and halve the number of victims by 2030, he said it would be easier to achieve any goal in these sectors if the government and private sector were involved. .
Referring to the next generation, not the upcoming elections in the thoughts of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, the secretary general of the Awami League said, Sheikh Hasina’s dream is to build a prosperous and developed Bangladesh. His concern is the protection of the country and the people. He has formulated a ‘Delta Plan’ on what Bangladesh will look like after one hundred years. This is Sheikh Hasina’s leadership specialty. Your vision is beyond possibility.
