Prime Minister Tarique Rahman has announced ten directives to manage the disaster situation in the Chattogram region following heavy rainfall and flooding. His adviser and office spokesperson Mahdi Amin shared the details in a Facebook post on Friday, July 10, 2026. The measures include continuous monitoring by the Prime Minister, activation of 1,057 shelters for over 12,000 people, and the distribution of relief funds and food supplies to five affected districts.

The directives also ensure safe drinking water, sanitation, healthcare, and food for affected residents. Security forces and, where necessary, the army have been deployed for rescue operations in hilly areas. Local representatives and BNP leaders have been instructed to assist victims regardless of political affiliation. Additionally, HSC and equivalent exams in disaster-hit areas have been postponed, and plans have been made to raise the Chattogram–Dohazari railway line by five feet to reduce future flood risks.

The Prime Minister’s Office expressed confidence that coordinated government action and humanitarian efforts will help the region recover from the crisis.
