Three valiant female freedom fighters, at last, got their happy abodes offered to them by the ‘Mother of Humanity Sheikh Hasina’.
These three female-freedom fighters-Shila Guha, Monowara Begum and Maya Khatun, did not have their own houses or land. As a result, they were staying in rented houses with family members from one place to another. But, getting the desired houses offered by the Prime Minister, they are now happy.
The three female freedom fighters got the houses as the Prime Minister offered some 70,000 houses to the landless and homeless families of the country. As a token of honor, three houses offered to the female freedom fighters have been colored Red and Green.
FF Shila Guha while expressing her feeling after getting the house said, she suffered a lot of torture during 1971 LiberationWar. She had no house of her own that is why she visited door to door. After a long-suffering, she was now happy to get a new house donated by Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina.
Dr. Abdus Shahid MP handed over houses to 100 families including these three female freedom fighters on Saturday afternoon.
Among others, the function of handing over the houses was attended by Joint Secretary of the Ministry of Disaster and Relief ATM Kamrul Islam Talukder, Upazila Chairman (In-charge) of Sreemongal Premsagar Hajra, Mayor of Kamalganj Municipality Jewel Ahmed and Senior Assistant Superintendent of Police Ashrafuzzaman.
Sreemonal Upazila Nirbahi Officer Nazrul Islam said, 300 houses will be built for homeless families of Sreemonal during the Mujib Birth centenary. 100 of those have been handed over and works of
construction of the rests are going on in the full swing.
