Cooperate with govt for development: President
Friday, 14 March 2014
President Abdul Hamid called upon people from all walks of life to actively cooperate with the government in a bid to ensure country’s overall development.
“Development is an ongoing process. The government’s responsibility is to ensure a development-friendly environment, including developing infrastructures. And people’s responsibility is to make it effective through active participation,” he said.
The President was addressing a reception accorded to him by Kishoreganj Zilla Samity at the Osmani Memorial Auditorium in the city Friday, according to a news agency.
Abdul Hamid said, “It’s not possible for the government alone to ensure overall development. For this reason, active cooperation from all is needed. The country’s development will be expedited if the government’s endeavours are connected with the efforts of individuals, social organisations and institutions.”
Chief Justice M Muzammel Hossain, LGRD Minister Syed Ashraful Islam, Prime Minister’s adviser Dr Gowher Rizvi and State Minister for Labour and Employment Mujibul Haq Chunnu, among others, spoke at the function with Kishoreganj Zilla Samity president Muhammad Yusuf in the chair.
