This is why, all the works will be done according to the decision of Water Development Board officials on the basis of priority. Besides, the works will be done with appropriate budget or allocation that to be determined for the projects after necessary investigation. We have to pay attention to determine correct budget in which there is no chance to be shortage or additional.”

“Not only that, the interim government is committed to retrieve the rivers grabbed by influential people during the Awami League regime,” she added.

Assuring to ensure flow of clean air, she said, “We want to protect our environment from all disasters and effect of climate changes. So, we all should be aware about the climate change issue as well as work together to protect our future generation from the clutch of climate change’s bad impact.”
