Amit joins improved meal distribution programme for underprivileged people
The state minister personally served polao, lentils, chicken and beef to the beneficiaries, creating an emotional atmosphere among attendees. But by the will of Allah, today I am able to enjoy polao, roast, and beef—served by Aninda Islam Amit, the pride of Jashore. I never thought I would experience such an environment on Eid, especially being served by the state minister himself,” he said. A special attraction of the event was an ice cream corner, which brought additional joy to children from underprivileged families. Speaking on the occasion, the state minister said the true spirit of Eid lies in sharing happiness with the less fortunate, rather than celebrating in isolation.
