Awareness session on safe foods held in Sundarganj

Bashundhara Shuvosangho held a nutrition and food safety awareness seminar for students in Sundarganj, Gaibandha, aiming to foster healthy dietary habits among youth.

The event took place Sunday at Believers Academy, organised by the local chapter of the voluntary group. Speakers emphasised the necessity of a balanced diet—including vegetables, fruits, eggs, milk, and fish—while warning against adulterated, oily, and uncovered street food. Presenters also highlighted hygiene essentials such as handwashing with soap and drinking safe water.

"Ensuring proper nutrition and safe food is critical for children's healthy growth," said Aminul Islam Akash, general secretary of Bashundhara Shuvosangho's Sundarganj unit, adding that the group plans to continue similar outreach programs.

Students Md Jaif Mia and Md Asif Sarkar said the session highlighted the importance of nutrient-rich diets over simply curbing hunger. They pledged to promote safe eating practices among their families and peers.

Shuvosangho's Sundarganj unit President Nur Alam Nur, Assistant Organising Secretary Asad Mia, and members Shahidul Islam Sumon, Al Amin, Md. Jahangir Alam, Jewel Rana, and Delwar Hossain also attended the program.
