Prime Minister Tarique Rahman on Monday said the government will introduce LPG cards for women alongside the existing family card program to ease their cooking-related hardship.
“Our mothers and sisters face difficulty every day. They have to struggle daily in managing food for the family. They also have to cook, and for that they need gas or firewood. This creates problems,” he said while addressing a public rally at the Jashore Central Eidgah Ground arranged by the district BNP.
Considering this hardship, the Prime Minister said the government took a plan two days ago to introduce LPG cards for women.
“We have taken a plan that, Inshallah, just like we have provided family cards for mothers, we will also provide LPG cards across Bangladesh so that they do not have to suffer in cooking and can prepare meals without worry. Gradually, we will implement this plan as well,” he said.
