Replying to a question, the CA said the government has not yet made any formal appeal for foreign aid to cope with the exigency caused by rising flood in the country.

He said upazila and district administrations, the joint forces and NGOs are working in aid of the flood-hit people spontaneously and unitedly.

Many people are coming forward in extending assistance to the flood victims, the CA said and informed that Chief Adviser's Relief Fund will be opened soon for receiving aid and donation from people and organisations.

On his arrival at Chatiantali flood shelter, the head of the caretaker government was briefed by Colonel M Emadul Haque and Deputy Commissioner M Ibrahim Khalil about the flood situation, loss of life and property due to flood and the relief operation.

He was informed that the flood has affected 76 unions out of 82 in nine upazilas of the district. The entire district town was inundated by floodwater. So far, 11 people were killed in various incidents due to flood.
