Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has called on people with the financial means to help the poor and the needy as she believes poverty in Bangladesh can be eradicated if everyone works together for the betterment of society.

She made the remarks on Saturday while inaugurating a programme whereby, 80 secretaries built homes for 160 homeless and landless families out of their own pockets.

People who are well-off could assist the underprivileged families around them by arranging some work for them or build shelters for those who don't have a roof over their heads, said Hasina.
