State Minister for Fisheries and Livestock Sultan Salauddin Tuku said the government is working tirelessly to make marginalized communities economically prosperous and self-reliant. He made the remarks while visiting the regional center of the Bangladesh Livestock Research Institute (BLRI) in Naikhongchhari, Bandarban. The minister stated that initiatives have been taken to use the livestock sector more effectively to improve the living standards of low-income people.
He recalled that the Naikhongchhari farm was established under the initiative of late President Ziaur Rahman, focusing on the conservation and production of gayal cattle and their distribution among small and marginalized communities in the hill region. The government has expanded this goal to promote self-sufficiency among these groups. Livestock such as goats and sheep have already been distributed to farmers, and research-based initiatives are underway to enhance support for small-scale farmers.
The minister also noted that the farm’s potential had not been fully utilized due to poor management in the past, but the current government will modernize and develop it. He emphasized that empowering marginal farmers through livestock rearing is central to the government’s vision of building a self-reliant Bangladesh.
