There is no alternative to a combined social movement to stave off child marriage, dowry and violence against women,” she said. Through the launching of the national helpline ‘109’ to prevent the repression of women and children, an effective measure has been taken to tackle sexual harassment and child marriage, Hasina said.

Website publishers also will be hurt if the AI overviews result in fewer clicks on website links lower on the results page.

I note that the current board has 5 men and 2 women representing our children. Balancing out the board with both moms and dads of current students will only benefit our children. The municipal portion of my job was similar to the school’s District Clerk in that I prepared Public Hearing Notices, Propositions, Resolutions, Advertisements for Bids, Board Agendas and Local Laws. When I relocated to Wellsville, I worked for Wellsville Central School and was tasked with duties in the District Office, Bus Garage and High School Office. During my tenure, I learned the inner workings of the District Office and became familiar with our school’s policies and procedures.
