Livelihood of coastal people

The livelihoods of millions of people in coastal areas are getting from bad to worse day by day. They are living below the poverty line. There are three reasons behind their untold sufferings i.e. i) Natural calamities like cyclones, tidal bores; ii) Poverty, unemployment, lack of medical care and treatment; and iii) No easy or suitable means of communication from coastal area to upazila/district headquarters. Hardly our ministers, MPs, DCs, higher govt. officials, and also our political leaders visit the coastal areas. We would request all concerned to move forward and do something good for socio-economic welfare of our coastal people.
