Bangladesh is mainly an agricultural country. Her people directly or indirectly depend upon agriculture for their living. So most of them are peasants.
The peasants of our country are generally uneducated. They are religious and God fearing by nature. They are simple in their habits and have sympathy for one another. There was a day when the economic condition of our peasants was good. They lived happily and peacefully. But with the growth of towns the state of things has changed for the worse. Most of them lead poor lives. Their children are ill- clad and ill- fed. They have no means to send their children to schools. They fall ill and die in numbers without diet and medicine. The peasants of our country have to work all day long. They till the land and make it ready for sowing seeds of different crops. They pull out the weeds from the land under crops. Sometimes they have to keep busy whit their work from morning till night and cannot make time to have their midday meals. With all this they are poor and illiterate. Though they are the feeders of the people, their children very often go without food.
