Locals block the Kurigram-Rangpur highway in the Kanthalbari Union of Kurigram demanding government help. When they went to the scene, angry people attacked UNO’s vehicle. But ONE is intact. UNO Moinul Islam confirmed the information.
According to the locals, many day laborers have lost their jobs due to the continued blockade in the Corona crisis. Even if government aid does come, it is negligible compared to demand. As a result, men, women and children in various areas of the union, including Madrasapara, Fowler Par, Nepal Dargah and Shivram, blocked roads demanding food aid.
The blockers claimed that photocopies of their national ID cards had been taken more than once, but no help was provided. As a result, they were forced to block the road to demand help. The road block continued until the report was written at 1 p.m. Saturday.
Chandmia, Badshah and Shahidul, some of the blockers, said they had been without food for several weeks but had received no relief from the government. In this situation, they suffer from food shortages with their families. As a result, they have somehow been forced to take to the streets to demand help.
When asked, Redwanul Haque Dulal, president of the Kanthalbari Union Parishad, said: “Government food aid has been provided through membership in the union.” There was no situation to block the way to demand food. The road blockade was fed from one side. When UNO came to investigate the matter, there was a planned attack on his car.
Sadar UNO Moinul Islam is known to have gone to the scene around 12:30 p.m. to talk to blockers. The attacker attacked shortly after noon in front of a crowd of protesters, including locals. The rear window of his government car was smashed. Later he quickly left the scene.
The UN said: “After receiving the news of the road blockade demanding relief, I went to the scene and tried to speak to the blockers.” Many of them admit to having received relief. But who or what attacked my government car. The rear window of the car was broken and the UN said he was unharmed and that preparations were being made to take legal action.
In response to a question, ONE said, “There are 7,548 families in that union.” So far, food aid has been provided to 1,361 families through concerned Union Parishads. In addition, 400 packages containing various foods have been distributed. The list for the next food aid has been requested. But it is not clear why they are blocking the way without informing us of the need for food aid. ”
The officer in charge of the Kurigram Sadar (OC) police station, Mahfuzar Rahman, said: ‘The road blockade has been lifted. Legal action will be taken following allegations of attack on UNO’s car.
Meanwhile, Morzina Begum, a reserved UP female member of the union’s neighborhoods 1, 2 and 3, was directly behind the protest by blocking the road demanding relief, UP President Redwanul Haque Dulal said. He was unable to sell the list in the government allocation distribution this year and organized a road blockade to confuse people. I reported the matter to ONE last night.
Demanding an investigation into the blockade and action against those responsible, the UP president said: “The people who participated in the blockade were told that the army will come in the morning to offer aid. Everyone come.” People have gathered to say this. Action must be taken against those who mislead people with false information and tarnish the image of the government. ”
However, denying the allegations, Morzina Begum, a reserved UP member, said: “People come to the field because they are not receiving relief.” I went there to stop.
“People from three neighborhoods come to my house in the morning and in the afternoon for relief,” he said. They swear it. But so far I’ve been assigned 50/60 in three rooms. Where will I get relief from them? So I said I can’t, you claim your rights. I will resign if necessary.
