Khulna District Administration has taken up a ‘Door to Door’ service programme to send essential goods to the poor people during the Corona crisis through digital survey to stay them at their homes in a bid to contain spreading of corona virus in the city.
“We’ve started ‘door to door’ services and opened hotlines to send daily essentials to the doorsteps of the needy, jobless and destitute people who have been asked to stay home to prevent the spread of corona virus”, Md Helal Hossain, Deputy Commissioner (DC) of Khulna told BSS yesterday.
The hotline numbers are-01717289656, 01779292978, 01712050563, 01675634900 and 01711084301, he said adding that the authorities have been sending the essentials to the doorsteps of the people after getting calls from them.
A five-member committee headed by Additional Deputy Commissioner (ADC General) Ziaur Rahman has been monitoring the service programme, he said.
The government led by Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has been working relentlessly to tackle the present adverse situation, the DC said adding that the government has been supplying the Personal Protecting Equipments (PPE) including masks, hand gloves and sanitizers to the doctors, nurses and other medical staff to protect them from the virus infection.
Besides, Khulna District Administration has served a notice last night asking the socio-cultural and political organisations to be given foods among the destitute people after taking permission from the Deputy Commissioner.
