Dhaka, May 19 -- Speaker of the Jatiya Sangsad Bhaban Hafiz Uddin Ahmad, Bir Bikram, on Tuesday said it is the responsibility of the state to eliminate inequalities at every level of the society.

He said the All-Party Caucus can work in addressing inequalities at different levels of society and the country and thus would help ensure formal recognition of the contributions of marginalised and disadvantaged communities to the country's development.

The Speaker made the remarks when a delegation led by Dr Debapriya Bhattacharya, Convener of the Citizen's Platform for SDGs, Bangladesh, and also Distinguished Fellow of the Centre for Policy Dialogue (CPD), paid a courtesy call on him at the latter's office at the Jatiya Sangsad Bhaban.
