Prime Minister Tarique Rahman announced that an additional 30,000 families will be brought under the Family Card program within the remaining three months of the current fiscal year. He made the statement during the question-and-answer session in the national parliament, marking his first appearance in that format as prime minister. The program, launched on March 10 across 15 wards in 13 districts, has already provided allowances to 37,814 women-headed families.
Rahman explained that the Family Card will be issued in the name of the female head of each household, aiming to strengthen women’s control over family assets. The initiative is designed to ensure that financial assistance is used directly for food, nutrition, healthcare, and education, while also enhancing women’s decision-making power and social status. The government plans to expand the program to cover 40 million families within the next four years.
During the session, the prime minister also stated that the government would take steps to recover laundered money, describing it as the people’s trust and a national responsibility to bring it back.
