The government has planned to develop accommodation for stranded Biharis, said Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina.

The prime minister made the comment at the oath taking of newly elected councillors at the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) on Thursday (Mar 7).

We want to ensure livelihood for them; for a long time, they have been living in privation and suffering, said the PM.

The prime minister said that new accommodation buildings will also be constructed for Dhaka North City Corporation officials.

Saying that four multi-storied buildings for DSCC cleaners have already been constructed, she said, “A total of 13 buildings will be constructed and we also have similar plans for DNCC cleaners.”

Calling on public representatives to be more active in keeping the city clean, she said, “Give special attention in keeping the public toilets, rail and bus stations clean.”
