Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina today inaugurated the
"Service Desk" at each of (659) police stations across the country
for women, children, elderly and disabled people with handing over 400 houses
built by the police for homeless families.
She virtually opened the two humanitarian initiatives of the
Bangladesh Police from her official Ganabhaban residence here marking the birth
centenary of Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman.
The programme was held at Dhaka Metropolitan Police Lines,
Rajarbagh, Dhaka, while all the police stations, police ranges and police lines
were connected to it.
The prime minister thanked all concerned for the
initiatives, saying, "Today is a special day as the "Service
Desk" at each police stations was opened for women, children, elderly and
differently-able people and houses built by police were provided to
homeless."
Referring to Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur
Rahman's remark that police should be a pro-people force, she said the two
initiatives mark the work of pro-people police.
The prime minister asked all the police personnel to render
services at the grassroots so the masses can trust the police force that they
will get services from the law enforcers whenever they want.
Sheikh Hasina also exchanged views with some service
receivers from the service desk, women police personnel who are providing the
service and beneficiary people who got the police houses, connected remotely
from different parts of the country including Chattogram, Peerganj of Rangpur
and Khulna.
Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan and Senior Secretary of
Public Security Division at Home Ministry Md. Akhter Hossain spoke on the
occasion while Inspector General of Police (IGP) Dr Benazir Ahmed gave the
welcome the address.
An audio-visual documentary on the two humanitarian
initiatives of police was screened at the function.
For opening the "Service Desk", a separate room
has been arranged at each of the police stations.
A specially trained woman sub-inspector will lead the desk
with other skilled female officers.
The desks are also entrusted with informing visitors about
other government services and providing legal aid to the victims who are
financially insolvent.
Police is set to build one house in 520 police stations each
across the country for the homeless people. In the first phase, police have
distributed 400 houses.
The houses, which were built with standard modern
construction materials, are earthquake and hot resistance.
