Lt. General (Retd.) Md. Jahangir Alam Chowdhury, Home and Agriculture Adviser to the interim government, emphasized that while the flood’s impact is severe, unity among people can resolve all issues.
“Despite the terrible intensity of the flood, all problems can be overcome if we stay united,” he said. “There will be no shortage of relief supplies or medicine. However, reaching some areas is challenging, which may delay assistance. This issue will not last long if we work together. The administration can reach everyone with the support of the people.”
The Home Adviser made these remarks during a relief and medicine distribution ceremony at the Noakhali Police Training Center on Monday, August 26, at 12:15 pm.
He also noted, “I am aware that the Muchapur regulator in Companyganj has completely collapsed. We are working to restore it quickly. I urge the public to assist us. With everyone’s efforts, we will achieve positive results.”
