The Jamalpur district administration has decided to prepare an online database of the real landless and homeless in Jamalpur Sadar Upazila. Forming the selection committees at Union and Ward level is an effective step to make the list of real landless and homeless people. This will make the identification process of the actual landless, poor and vulnerable people easy, acceptable to all and impartial. I hope that once the list is finalised, it will be useful in selecting beneficiaries for the various safety net and development programmes of the present government. Besides, an important task of the government is to allocate khas land (state land) to the landless. This list will not only make the beneficiary identification process easy but also will enable the government to distribute khas land in an undisputed way. The list will be useful to the local government and local administration and for the non- government organisations.
