Minister for separate department for children

State Minister for Women and Children Affairs Meher Afroz Chumki yesterday spoke strongly in favour of a separate "Department" for the children, like the Department of Women Affairs and  Department of Youth Development, to establish rights of children, reports BSS. She said if children are developed, country would develop automatically. "Department for children is not a big demand. The development of the country depends on development of children," she said while addressing as the chief guest a view exchange meeting on forming a separate "Department of Children" at CIRDAP auditorium in the capital. Chumki said Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has also given opinion in favour of Children Department.
