DHAKA, June 13, 2026 (BSS) - State Minister for Information and Broadcasting 
Yasser Khan Choudhury today said positive changes in people's social values 
and behavior are crucial for optimistic social changes.

including maintaining road discipline and keeping streets clean," he said.

He said initiatives will be taken under the Ministry of Information and 
Broadcasting to produce short video content (reels) to raise public 
awareness.

"Issues such as respect for women, respect for elders, and maintaining ethics 
in the use of social media will be given special priority in these 
initiatives," Yasser Khan Choudhury added.

Barrister Naufel Zamir, founder and chairman of Insight for Change Foundation 
(ICF), chaired the event.

Member of Parliament (MP) for Panchagarh-1 constituency Barrister Nausha 
Zamir and Director of the National Library Afshana Begum attended the event
