My thoughts on "How to Eradicate Poverty from Bangladesh"
Eradication of poverty will of course take a long time but at least we can bring about a change and lessen burdens of poverty by taking a few measures, such as,
1) Reinforce the established law of two children for each family only by means of strict vigilance team in the country.
For all latest news, follow The Daily Star's Google News channel. 2) A family with more than two children will be deprived of any financial help from the government.
3) A family with more than two children will be deprived of special medical allowances from the government.
4) A family with more than two children will be always in the waiting list for getting job anywhere in the country.
5) Youths and unemployed citizens should be given training for growing crops in the road side spaces & in the empty authorised lands.
6) There should be income generating programmes among village people.
7) There should be progressive tax system (for higher income groups) for increasing government funds.
8) Introducing strategic planning for helping distressed women to get employment and to eradicate illiteracy.
Above all, I feel, we, all the citizens should try whole heartedly to improve our standard of living and eradicate poverty from this country by all means. although no.5,6,7, steps are ongoing in the country ; we must strictly establish and follow no.1,2,3, and 4 measures to bring a revolution in the country as nothing will help unless we size up our population figure according to the size of our land.
