 Bismillahirrahmanirrahim, Excellencies, let me begin by thanking the office of High Commissioner for Human Dites for arranging the Human Dites 75 event. We are celebrating the 75th anniversary of the milestone document Universal Declaration of Human Dites which is equally relevant today as it was 75 years ago. The preservation, protection and promotion of the Human Dites set out in the declaration is vital to each one of us. The declaration is very first article says and I quote, all human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. Unquote. Regrettably we continue to observe widespread human rights violations leading to a sense of indignity, deprivation, discrimination and injustice among the vulnerable segments of the population worldwide. The international humanitarian laws and human rights laws are complementary to each other. We observe their flagrant violations in the name of rise to self defense. Even the right to life for children and rights of civilians and non-combatants are being violated indiscriminately. It is also said that at times so-called leaders of human rights subjectively abuse their offices in the name of human rights to punish or divert certain countries or leaders under various protects and thus credibility of the office is compromised. They must avoid such tendency as violation of anyone's rights potentially undermines the rights of all of us and we must stand up against any violation of the provisions of beauty HR. Recent barbaric killing of innocent babies in occupied Gaza is an example of it. Bangladesh was born out of a long struggle against injustice, discrimination and oppression. We sacrificed three million lives to uphold democracy, human rights and justice and therefore we attach high importance to the principles of democracy and human rights. Our commitment to uphold human rights and fundamental freedoms is unqualified and we are determined to continue to mainstream human rights in national plans, policies and actions. On this occasion Bangladesh reaffirms its firm commitment to the promotion and protection of human rights. In line with our commitment Bangladesh makes the following pledges. First, continue to strengthen our national human rights commission. Second, create awareness about compliance of global human rights standards among law enforcement agencies. Third, continue to undertake projects to improve the condition of our prisons. Fourth, organize international seminars on human rights and fifth, make a modest financial contribution to the office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights. I use Human Rights 75 initiatives all the success. I thank you all.
