The BCB has come to the aid of the flood affected people in Sirajganj as cricket's governing body in the country, led by board president Nazmul Hasan, distributed relief among the flood victims.

The Sirajganj residents living in and around the Kauakhola Union and Saydabad were part of the relief distribution programme.

According to the Department of Disaster Management officials, 900 unions of 138 upazilas in 25 districts have so far been inundated by floodwater.

In Sirajganj, as water level in the Jamuna river rose by 18cm, flooding in five upazilas - Kazipur, Shahzadpur, Belkuchi, Chouhali and Sadar - has taken a serious turn, adding to the victims’ woes.
