New Minister for Women, Children and Social Protection, Sashi Kiran, is determined to remain focused on her responsibilities despite the controversy surrounding her predecessor, Lynda Tabuya, who was dismissed following the release of a private video on social media. Kiran was sworn in on Friday and emphasized the importance of continuing the ministry’s work for the people, particularly in supporting vulnerable communities.
Acknowledging the challenges posed by the recent events, Kiran expressed her commitment to serving the ministry’s mandate. “There is trust, and what we’re concerned about is ensuring that we get the work done,” she stated. Kiran called for the support of all Fijians as she steps into her new role, emphasizing her dedication to those in need.
With her experience as Assistant Minister since the start of the Coalition Government, Kiran is well-positioned to lead the ministry through this transitional period. Her focus on community service and addressing the needs of the vulnerable is a hopeful sign for the future.
In essence, this change in leadership reflects a continuity of commitment to social welfare and the importance of resilience in public service, even in the face of adversity.
