The Mushfiqur Rahim Foundation has distributed relief items among 300 flood-affected families in Sariakandi, Bogra. The foundation is owned by, the senior national cricketer Mushfiqur Rahim as he comes from Bogra district.
Mushfiqur confirmed the matter on his verified Facebook page on Tuesday, saying that he is pleased to see his foundation started working with full force.
“As far as the eye goes, just water and water. Green palms on the horizon are visible. Sailing boats and fishing boats sailing across the river filled with youth. While it is dazzling beauty for visitors, it’s agony for people living on both sides of the river. Flood tormented them at a time when coronavirus kept them at bay and ruined the rhythm of normal life. All the crops, the houses are underwater. The people who have been working hard forever are helpless today,” Mushfiqur wrote in an emotional post on Facebook.
He further wrote that after knowing their sufferings he decided to stay beside those people.
“Two days ago, my dream project Mushfiqur Rahim Foundation officially started its journey by distributing relief materials among 300 flood-affected families in Bohail village and Dharabharsha Char under Bohail Union of Sariakandi upazilla in Bogra District. I express my love and respect to the volunteers of the Bangladesh Red Crescent Society Bogra Unit for the smooth conduct of all relief work," he added.
Mushfiqur Rahim has been sweating out for a long time at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium in Mirpur ahead of the upcoming Sri Lanka series. The important member of the national cricket team also trained at the Shaheed Chandu Stadium in Bogra for a few days when he was in Bogra as well.
