Public works minister calls for safe food intake to increase life expectancy
Housing and Public Works Minister RAM Obaidul Moktadir Chowdhury has urged all to take safe food to increase the average life expectancy.
"Like other countries, we must enhance the average life expectancy of our nation. Achieving this goal requires adhering to safe food consumption practices with no exceptions. It is advisable to steer clear of oily foods," he said while speaking as the chief guest at the closing ceremony of the three-day Safe Food Carnival organised by Bangladesh Safe Food Authority at Bangabandhu International Conference Center on Saturday (10 February) night.
The young generation will be able to take the leadership of the world including Bangladesh if they take safe food, he said.
