Dhaka Deputy Commissioner Farida Khanam has said that the Family Card program will become a symbol of empowerment for underprivileged families. She made the remarks on Wednesday at the inauguration ceremony of the Family Card program held at the Ruhitpur Upazila Parishad field in Keraniganj. In this third phase, a total of 1,275 families from two unions of Keraniganj upazila are receiving the cards.
Farida Khanam explained that the initiative reflects the government’s vision that the family, not the individual, is the core unit of development. The Family Card aims to bring genuinely poor, helpless, and disadvantaged families under an integrated social security framework. Currently, more than 95 social safety programs are being implemented through 23 ministries, and the Family Card is designed to unify these scattered services under one platform.
She added that the card will help transform social security from a donation-based system into a citizen’s right and may eventually serve as a universal social identity card for accessing government services more easily.
