Women's inclusion in political parties makes democracy effective: Speaker


Bangladesh Jatiya Sangsad (JS) Speaker Dr Shirin Sharmin Chaudhury has said that the inclusion of women in political parties leads the country towards a more effective democracy, reports.
She made the remarks while participating in the discussion titled 'Leveraging Parliamentary Democracy for Political Empowerment of Women: Bangladesh Perspective', organised by the Bangladesh High Commission at Churchill Hall of the House of Commons, UK, on Tuesday afternoon, according to a press release.
"Many consider the instance of becoming the first woman Speaker of the national parliament as a great example of women's empowerment. It is a symbol that shows that if a woman is qualified enough, she can reach the pinnacle of success," she said.
