She added: “People have already got power. We are reaching power to the remotest areas across the country by setting up solar panels. Alongside this, we have been taking measures to increase power generation and installing more power distribution lines to ensure power for all.”

Turning to setting up a communication networks, the premier said that her government has been working to building a vast communication network across the country through the road, waterways and railways to ensure the country’s overall development.

“We are constructing roads, reviving the naval routes and setting up more rail lines to establish a vast communication network across the country. Once the country builds the communication network in a proper manner, transportation will be easier and the people will become economically solvent,” she said.

About the Itna-Mithamoin-Austagram Highway in Kishoreganj, the premier said the sufferings of the people in this region will end with the construction of the road as people now can go quickly to Dhaka through Nasirnagar of Brahmanbaria and Bhairab and thus other parts of the country and can transport their produced goods to different parts of the country.

She added that the people of the Austagram Upazila could send their cheese (panir) which has international standard to Dhaka and even could export using the road.

The premier said her government has been setting up special economic zones at different parts of the country considering which goods are usually produced in the particular areas, as the local people could gain economic solvency.

She said since the Haor region is the source of huge fishes, the government wants to develop relevant industries there to pave the way for cultivating, processing and marketing fishes.

The premier said they are set to build food and other agriculture goods processing industries so that agriculture-dependent regions would not remain dependent on only agriculture to ensure marketing of the goods and thus people will gain financial solvency.
