Prime Minister
Sheikh Hasina today said the government is developing communication systems
across the country as developed communication expedites industrialisation as
well as boosts trade and business.
"We're reviving rail communication, setting up new rail
tracts and reactivating rivers through dredging alongside constructing
bridges...A developed communication expedites industrialisation and boosts
trade and business," she said.
The premier said this at a financial donation-giving
ceremony at the Prime Minister's Office (PMO), joining virtually from her
official residence Ganabhaban here.
Different banks and financial institutions donated to the
Prime Minister's Relief and Welfare Fund. Principal Secretary to the Prime
Minister Dr Ahmad Kaikaus, on behalf of the premier, received the cheques
of donation.
Mentioning that the government has established a road
communication network across the country by constructing bridges and others,
Sheikh Hasina said they are reactivating the rivers by dredging while reviving
the rail communication although the previous government almost abandoned it.
Referring to the recently inaugurated Padma Multipurpose
Bridge, she hoped that it would change the fate of the people of 21 districts.
She said the Padma Bridge has opened up the vast scope of
industrialisation in the Southern region of the country that might bring
economic development to rural people.
She also noted that it would also raise the purchasing
capability of rural people, which would also create a market for locally
produced goods.
The prime minister again extended her heartfelt gratitude to
the countrymen, saying that, "People are my strength. Construction of the
Padma Bridge with own finance has been possible as the people of the country
stood beside me."
