Prime Minister Tarique Rahman today declared the government's determination to establish Bangladesh as a welfare state, emphasizing people-oriented initiatives aimed at enhancing living standards. Speaking at a public gathering in Pakundia, Kishoreganj, after releasing fish fry into the Brahmaputra River, Rahman urged citizens to remain patient and vigilant against attempts to create disorder and hinder the country’s development.

Commitment to People-Oriented Initiatives

Rahman highlighted the government's focus on welfare programs, stating, 'Our goal is to build a welfare state. That is why we are taking various measures for the welfare of the people. We have already started implementing different programmes, including the Family Card.' These initiatives are designed to provide tangible benefits to the population, ensuring that development plans translate into real improvements in daily life.

The Prime Minister referenced the significant support extended by thousands of people to the government’s development plans, asserting that proper implementation would yield substantial benefits for the populace. He encouraged the public to maintain the trust they placed in the party during the February 12 election, promising continued commitment to their welfare and the nation’s development.

Addressing Challenges and Future Plans

Criticizing the previous government’s unplanned measures in the power and energy sector, Rahman attributed the current crisis to these actions. Looking ahead, he announced that the government would present a comprehensive plan to address the country’s power-related problems over the next ten years during the upcoming session of parliament, scheduled to begin on August 27.

Rahman also called for vigilance against those attempting to create disorder, noting that such actions disproportionately affect ordinary citizens. He urged the public to resist individuals and groups working against the country’s interests, emphasizing the need for collective strength to maintain peace, the rule of law, employment, education, and healthcare.

In conclusion, the Prime Minister reaffirmed the BNP’s dedication to the people of Bangladesh, promising that the party would always act in the best interests of the nation and its citizens. His address underscored the government’s vision for a prosperous, orderly, and welfare-oriented Bangladesh.
