Awami League Advisory Council member Tofail Ahmed has distributed relief among 10,000 families in Bhola Sadar upazila from his own private fund.

"As Bangabandhu led the nation to independence, his daughter Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina is also leading in facing the coronavirus epidemic," the former commerce minister said during a videoconference on Thursday.

"Leaders and workers of the Awami League have to work for the general people now, as they had worked together in 1971," the senior party leader added.
