The Sadullapur upazila unit of Bashundhara Shuvosangho distributed awareness leaflets at Pochar Bazar in Bhatgram union on Friday to raise public consciousness against dengue and encourage the destruction of Aedes mosquito breeding grounds.
During the campaign, organisation members handed out
leaflets to traders, pedestrians, and local residents across the market. The
leaflets outlined preventive measures against dengue, urging the public to keep
homestead surroundings clean, prevent stagnant water accumulation, and
regularly empty flower tubs, plastic drums, and discarded containers.
Former Assistant Engineer of Sadullapur Local Government Engineering Department (LGED) Alhajj Engineer (retd) Md Azharul Hannan was present at the event. Other participants included Bashundhara Shuvosangho Sadullapur upazila unit President Ashiqur Rahman Ashiq (Shaon), General Secretary Md Sojib Sarkar, and members Md Mursalin Mia, Md Riyon Akand, Md Pappu Mia, Rifat Akand, Md Dipon Mia, Mahbubor Rahman, Riyon Sheikh, and Tanvir Mahtab Rohan, alongside other activists.
Speaking on the occasion, Engineer Azharul Hannan noted that
awareness is vital to preventing dengue. He urged everyone to take personal
responsibility for eliminating stagnant water and curbing mosquito breeding,
stressing that collective efforts are essential to reducing dengue risks.
Ashiqur Rahman Ashiq reaffirmed Shuvosangho’s commitment to
public welfare, stating that the initiative extends beyond distributing
leaflets to cultivating hygiene and health-conscious habits among the public.
Other leaders emphasised that community-level action must
complement individual caution, reminding residents that Aedes mosquitoes breed
in accumulated clear water on rooftops, balconies, and courtyards. Organisers
affirmed that Shuvosangho will continue its grassroots campaigns to foster
cleanliness and curb dengue transmission.
