The Prime Minister has said that the government has a plan to gradually bring about four crore marginalized and low-income families under the Family Card programme.

‘The philosophy of the current government is ‘family, not the individual, as the fundamental unit of development’,” Tarique Rahman, also ruling BNP chairman, said while replying to a question from treasury bench member from Noakhali-1 Barrister AM Mahbub Uddin Khokon.

He said that the current government has taken the Family Card programme based on the vision of ensuring social security for citizens through a family-centric development approach.

In the initial phase, he said Family Cards were distributed to 37,814 families across 10 districts and three city corporations on March 10, 2026.

The premier stated that the government has a plan to gradually bring about four crore marginalized and low-income families under this program in the future.
