Thousands of people gathered at many points of Shanerhat union where Dr Shirin exchanged views with them and discussed massive development works implemented in the upazila as elsewhere in the country in last ten years.
Narrating importance of every vote to bring the Awami League (AL)-led grand alliance to power for the third consecutive time through the 11th national election, she said more uplift works will be done if people cast their votes for 'Boat.'
"Under the leadership of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, the country has achieved necessary criteria for its graduation to a developing country from the LDCs following massive developments in every sector in last ten years," she said.
Dr Shirin said AL always believes in the politics of development and turns its words into reality and urged the electorates to vote for 'Boat' for further improvement of livelihoods and life standard of common people.
