Secretary General of Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami and former MP Professor Mia Golam Parwar said, We are shocked by this disaster of people of Sunamganj who were inundated by sudden terrible flood. All levels of Jamaat have been working to help the flood affected people of Sunamganj since the beginning. The able-bodied people of the society should come forward to help the flood victims. All danger comes from Allah. Therefore, we should seek Allah’s help more in difficult situations.
He said, due to the inadequacy of government relief efforts, the suffering of the flood victims is increasing. Jamaat, an oppressed organization committed to building a justice-based society in the green land of Bangladesh, has stood by the flood victims since the beginning. Jamaat-art is always working for the welfare of humanity despite the endless jail-oppression-torture, execution of leaders, assault-cases. To stand by the flood affected people of Sunamganj, we have brought all possible gifts from Dhaka. We are Bangladeshis, we are brothers. So I couldn’t stay away from you in this calamitous time. I have come to your side to respond to the call of humanity out of conscience. This foodpack is not a charity but part of a brother’s responsibility to his brother. It is very difficult for the people of Haorpar to overcome this huge flood damage. In this regard, along with the government, the capable people should come forward. Jamaat has been with the people in the past in any calamity, still is, and will continue to be in the future, inshallah.
He said the above while visiting various flood affected places in the district including Mohammpur area flood shelter of Sunamganj municipality, Haluargao village of Sadar upazila’s Laxmanshri union, Paglabazar area of Shantiganj upazila and Kalaruka area of Chatak upazila and distributing food items (foodpack) among the flood victims. He visited various flood affected areas throughout the day and extended his condolences to the flood victims. At the same time, he expressed the assurance of standing by the side of the Jamaat.
