Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami Ameer and Leader of the Opposition in Parliament, Dr. Shafiqur Rahman, visited the flood-affected Gunagari area of Banshkhali upazila in Chattogram on Friday morning. The locality, known as Hindupara, is home to mostly low-income Hindu fishing families whose houses were inundated by continuous rain and hill runoff. Many residents had taken shelter on the second floor of a local shop and nearby safe spots for three days. Dr. Rahman distributed cash and relief materials, waded through waist-deep water to visit homes, and spoke with elderly people, women, and children about their hardships.
Local residents said few others had visited their neighborhood, praising his effort to check on each household. They reported that hundreds of families in the area suffered losses, including damaged fishing nets, boats, livestock, and furniture. After distributing aid, Dr. Rahman told reporters that in times of disaster, the only identity that matters is humanity, not religion, ethnicity, or politics. He emphasized that helping affected people is a moral and humanitarian duty.
The visit highlighted a message of solidarity and compassion across religious lines amid severe flooding in the region.
