The Italian government has agreed to include Bangladesh in the country's farm workers programme, said Foreign Minister Dr AK Abdul Momen.
Public Relations Officer of the ministry confirmed the matter on Monday night.
"At our request, Italian government has finally agreed to include Bangladesh in their Farm Workers programme. The county's government withdrew this privilege as Bangladeshi workers violated the conditions of this programme by not returning home after each season," the minister added.
