'People with disabilities need separate ministry'

He came up with the statement while speaking at a concert marking the International Disable Day at Rabindra Sarobar, Dhanmondy, Dhaka. In the last special Olympic in Australia, they brought glory for the country by achieving prizes including gold medal. But state is yet to recognize them enough and spend very little financial support for their developments. The people with disabilities should raise their voices to change mindset of society so that they can get equal opportunity like normal people, said he. Rabbi demanded immediate implementation Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s assurance of providing facilities to the physically challenged people. “If we fail to bring the physically challenged people into main flow, it would be tough to meet the SGD (Sustainable development Goal) goal and to be a developed country by 2041” he said. He demanded special building code, education institution and habitation for impoverished challenged people. Terming transgender as sex-challenged people, he mentioned them as the most vulnerable group of the society and asked all to raise voice in favour of them to have their rights.
