Dhaka, Oct 21 (bdnews24.com) — Several organisations have taken out a procession in the city to motivate people to pull Hijras (transgender minority) to the main stream of society
Information secretary Hedayetullah Al Mamun inaugurated the procession, organised by Skill Development Project of the education ministry on Friday.
Students of Bangladesh Public Administration Training Centre's Group-E started the project.
Mamun said at a rally, held in the Dhaka University area before the procession, that perceptions will have to be changed to push the 'left-behind' Hijras ahead considering overall development of the country.
