GAZIPUR, Sept 5, 2026 (BSS) - Administrator of Gazipur Zila Parishad and the 
district BNP member secretary Dr Chowdhury Ishrak Ahmed Siddiqui today 
inaugurated 30 development projects simultaneously in different areas of 
Phulbaria Union in Kaliakair upazila of the district.

The projects were inaugurated throughout the day from Saturday morning and 
include renovation of branch roads in remote areas that have become 
unsuitable for vehicular movement, infrastructural development of various 
madrasas and orphanages and other public welfare initiatives.

Speaking at the inauguration ceremonies, Dr Chowdhury Ishrak Ahmed Siddiqui 
said development should not remain confined to urban areas, as people living 
in remote areas also have an equal right to development opportunities.

"These projects have been taken up by prioritising the needs of the people," 
he said, adding that initiatives would be taken gradually to address the 
longstanding communication and other problems faced by residents of remote 
areas.

He also stressed the need to ensure proper implementation of the projects.

Local residents said this would reduce the longstanding travel difficulties 
faced by students, farmers, traders and other people.

They also appreciated the initiative to undertake several development 
projects simultaneously and urged the authorities to ensure their timely and 
quality implementation.

Gazipur Zila Parishad executive officer and deputy secretary Ahammad Hossain 
Bhuiyan, Kaliakair upazila BNP convener Alhaj Nurul Islam Sikder, member 
secretary Alhaj M Anwar Hossain and Poura BNP convener Md Mamud Sarker were 
present, among others, at the programmes.
