BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia has called upon her party leaders and activists to stand beside the flood victims with relief materials immediately.

“... I ask everyone, especially BNP leaders & activists, to urgently help them,” she said in a Twitter message today.

Earlier, issuing a message Khaleda expressed grave concern over the country’s flood situation and blamed the government for not initiating any “realistic steps”.

She alleged that the countrymen have already become helpless losing their all belongings due to the adverse impact of the flash flood but the government did not initiate any effective step without “leap service.” to protect the people’s livelihood.
