Prime Minister’s wife Zubaida Rahman and her daughter Zaima Rahman joined orphan students for iftar on Thursday at Jamia Qurbaniya Talimiya Dawra Hadis Women’s Madrasa and Orphanage in West Bhashantek, Dhaka. The event was confirmed by BNP Media Cell member Shayrul Kabir Khan.

According to the report, Dhaka-17 constituency’s Member of Parliament Tarique Rahman has arranged for local BNP units to provide iftar, dinner, and sehri throughout Ramadan to 14 orphanages and Hafezia madrasas in Karail slum and Bhashantek. Before the meal, Zubaida and Zaima Rahman spoke with the orphan students.

In previous years, BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia and central leaders held iftar gatherings with orphans and religious scholars on the first day of Ramadan, but no such central event took place this year.
