Food assistance provided to person with disability in Jamalpur

The Sarishabari upazila unit of Bashundhara Shuvosangho handed over daily food commodities and household essentials to the family of Bachhu Mia, a person with physical disabilities, in Sarishabari, Jamalpur on Wednesday.

The humanitarian aid was distributed at noon at Bogarpar under Pogaldigha union in Sarishabari upazila of Jamalpur to mitigate the distress of marginalised and disadvantaged community members struggling amidst soaring commodity prices.

The food pack included essentials such as rice, lentils, edible oil, flour, onions, garlic, salt, soap, and detergent powder to meet the family's immediate daily needs.

Unable to work regularly due to physical impairments, Bachhu Mia expressed gratitude upon receiving the items, stating, "My physical disability prevents me from working steadily, making it extremely difficult to run the household. This assistance from Bashundhara Shuvosangho in our hour of need brings immense relief."

Sahaj Path Foundation Founder Atif Asad addressed the programme, remarking that affluent quarters of society should follow suit and extend humanitarian support to mitigate the sufferings of impoverished families.

Sarishabari upazila unit of Bashundhara Shuvosangho Health and Human Resources Secretary Md Manik Mia said standing beside citizens who struggle to meet basic household needs remains a collective moral responsibility.
