Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina wants quick repatriation of Myanmar's forcibly displaced Rohingya people from Bangladesh to their own living places in Rakhaine.
The Prime Minister also renewed her call to the international community to keep up the pressure on the government of Myanmar in this regard.
Sheikh Hasina came up with the call when newly appointed UN Resident Coordinator and UNDP Resident Representative in Bangladesh Mia Seppo met her at her office in the parliament on Tuesday evening.
Prime Minister's Press Secretary Ihsanul Karim briefed reporters after the meeting.
Sheikh Hasina said the process could be expedited once the repatriation of the Rohingyas starts.
The Prime Minister also put emphasis on both bilateral and multi-lateral efforts to resolve the Rohingya crisis.
She extend her gratitude to the UN agencies and assemblies like the UNGA, UN Security Council, UN Human Rights Councilfor supporting Bangladesh and address the issue.
Hasina also thanked the development partners and other international communities for their emergency services to the Rohingya people who fled to Bangladesh.
About the impact of such huge Ronhigya influx on Bangladesh, the Prime Minister said local people in Cox's Bazar are suffering as they cannot cultivate their lands. More importantly, she added, the environment is being affected due to the stay of the refugees.
Hasina also elaborated various efforts of her government for the development and empowerment of women in Bangladesh and said some 45,000 women contested the local government body elections.
During the meeting, the new UN Resident Coordinator and UNDP Resident Representative highly appreciated Hasina for providing shelter to the Rohingyas saying her government showed an incredible compassion in this regard.
Mia Seppo said such huge influx of the Myanmar nationals from Rakhaine in just three weeks' time is surprising.
UNB says, the UN Resident Coordinator also lauded the efforts and good management of the government in providing various assistance and support, and sheltering such huge refugees.
She, however, put importance to decongestion of Rohingya camps to ensure a healthy environment there as those are overpopulated.
