Prime Minister Tarique Rahman has handed over the appointment letters to three disabled people.
He handed over the appointment letters to them while entering his office of the Cabinet Division at the Bangladesh Secretariat.
He began his day’s program at the Secretariat today by handing over the appointment letters.
Prime Minister’s Deputy Press Secretary Hasan Shiplu said this.
They were appointed with the aim of making disabled people self-reliant and integrating them into the mainstream of society through employment.
The three appointees are Aisha Akhter of Saghata Upazila of Gaibandha, Nila Khatun of Kamarkhand Upazila of Sirajganj and Md. Hasmat Ali of Narail Sadar Upazila.
Hasan Shiplu said that they expressed excitement after receiving the appointment letters directly from the Prime Minister. For them, the day was the beginning of a new career as well as a new dream.
It is worth noting that Aisha Akhter and Nila Khatun are both physically disabled. Nila Khatun, who was born without both hands, has completed her postgraduate studies by writing with her feet. She has been appointed as a teacher at the National Disability Development Foundation in Mirpur in the capital.
Ayesha Akhter also completed her postgraduate studies by writing with her feet. Since she has no hands, she accepted the appointment letter with her mouth. She has been appointed as a class supervisor at the Beam Laboratory School and College in Gaibandha.
On the other hand, visually impaired Md. Hasmat Ali has been appointed as a union social worker under the Department of Social Services.
At that time, Minister for Social Welfare and Women and Children Affairs Professor Dr. AZM Zahid Hossain, State Minister for Women and Children Affairs Farzana Sharmin Putul, Social Welfare Secretary Dr. Mohammad Abu Yusuf, Managing Director of Bangladesh Disability Development Foundation Md.
