BGB Delivers Humanitarian Aid to Barkal Fire Victims
The para-military Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) has provided humanitarian aid to the families affected by the fire in the remote Chhota Harina area under Barkal upazila here this morning. Harina Zone BGB Commander Lieutenant colonel Imrul Kayes Mehedi donated the construction materials to fire victim Samar Kanti Chakma for the reconstruction of his burnt homestead, said a BGB release here today. He also distributed winter clothes (blankets) and essential food items to the fire victims in the area.
Earlier on December 26, a fire broke out at the homestead of Samar Kanti Chakma under the remote Jirakhamar BGB camp in the upazila. Following the fire, the house of Samar Kanti Chakma was entirely destroyed. However, the BGB camp in Jirakhamar came to assist the victims of the fire as part of its role in disaster management and humanitarian aid.
