BNP Chairman Tarique Rahman on Wednesday said women would be made self-reliant if his party is voted to power in the national election.


He said mothers and daughters would receive primary healthcare services at home without visiting hospitals for basic treatment, he said addressing a rally at Bell’s Park in Barishal city.

Tarique Rahman also pledged a series of measures to support farmers, including the construction of cold storage facilities, to ensure fair prices for agricultural produce, reports UNB. 

He said BNP would introduce an agriculture card to provide farmers with seeds and fertilisers according to their needs. Loans amounting to Tk 10,000 taken by farmers would be waived, he promised.

Tarique said industries would be set up using gas from Bhola, creating jobs for local people and alongside contributing to regional economic development.
