President of National Children Task Force Tuhin Khan and District Youth Volunteer Rashed Ahmed also spoke. The speakers viewed that the physical and mental development of children couldn’t be possible until they were protected from violence and deprivation from their early childhood. Terming the children as the future power of the nation, the speakers called for ensuring equal rights for developing their latent intelligence as they constitute a significant portion of the country’s total population. Besides, they stressed on teaching children the positive family and social values and encourage them to develop healthy behaviors at an early age. The children should be protected from all sorts of labour, violence, repression and oppression so that they could build themselves competent enough to serve the nation. Apart from this, they emphasised the need for ensuring safety and security to them and stopping early marriage in the greater national interest.
