The Prime Minister has taken various initiatives to make the women of the country self-reliant. There are currently 65 women members in the National Parliament of Bangladesh, including the Prime Minister and the Speaker.

Work should be done to increase the scope of work for women. If women’s financial empowerment is done properly, maternal mortality, child mortality or child marriage will be reduced to a large extent.
