Presidium Member Matia Chowdhury, Health Secretary Rokeya Sultana, Office Secretary Biplab Barua, and Deputy Office Secretary Sayem Khan, among others, were present at Hasina’s political office in Dhanmondi. “The leader [Hasina] has asked us to form committees even at the ward level. The committees will list people who are really helpless, who can’t seek something from the others, the poor, and the ultra-poor,” Biplab said. Currently 5 million Bangladeshis are under the government’s relief programmes and Hasina wants to double the number, he said. The relief materials will include baby food, according to the party’s office secretary.
