Int’l
Turkish Hope School Chittagong Branch, a branch Int’l Turkish Hope School Dhaka
which is having principal office in Dhaka along with 7 branches in Dhaka,
Chittagong and Bogra, like in the previous years this year too handed out an enormous
number of Qurbani Meat packets to different areas of Bangladesh to help needy
people. Meat packets of 210 Qurbani cattle has been distributed to local people
in 26 different points of Chittagong as Hathazari, Sitakunda, Anwara, Bandar, Shatkira,
Fatikchari, Rawzan, Rangamaty, Kumira, Lohagara and Noapara. In
the city, distributions were held at Agrabad, Nasirabad, Shughonda, Hillview,
Anderkellah, Laldighi, Muradpur and Pahartholi on the first and the second days
of the Eid.
Yesterday,
during a distribution in the city with collaboration of Chittagong City
Cooperation among CCC permanent and temporary cleaners who were busy with the
cleaning of the streets the day before yesterday, ITHS Chittagong Branch distributed 20
qurbani cattle for Muslims and 21 goats for non-Muslims.
Those who
never have the opportunity to eat meat were identified and given coupons, as a
result of careful collaboration with local official authorities or the leading
figures of the areas / villages. All over the 26 separate distribution
locations, our primary aim as always was to personally deliver the qurban meat
packets first hand, to those in real need. Preparations of this splendid
distribution started about a month back and around 9 members of ITHS
participated in the distributions from Chittagong .
The
Principal of the school Mr. Bedrettin Suata said that: We see Eid-ul-Azha as a
time to extend a helping hand to our needy brethren. As ITHS we try to evaluate
Eid time as an opportunity to help the people who are most in need. Therefore
as we have done for last 16 years, we arranged Qurbani cattle of which all
their meat to be distributed to needy people in many districts and villages.
This year with the donations of qurbani cattle done by the benevolent Turkish
people living in Turkey, Bangladesh, Europe and USA in company with Bangladeshi
well-wishers, number of the Qurbani cattle has been increased to 1619 (one
thousand six hundred and nineteen). Besides, about 182 Turkish well-wishers
from Turkey and Europe came
to Bangladesh
and participated in the distributions along with ITHS teachers. This type of
activities makes our Eids more auspicious. We distributed around 230 qurbani
cattle in the year of 2005 and gradually number of qurbani cattle increased and
this year we have reached the number 1690. I hope number qurbani cattle will
cross 2000 next year and number of needy people who are going to get the meat packets
will be greater than ever. He also added that very strong brotherly links
between the two countries will remain long. This event shows love and very good
feelings of Turkish people to their Bangladeshi brothers.
Principal
thanked everyone who participated in this distribution and especially local
well-wishers who made this organization successful.
Natives who
received meat packages became very happy and thanked Turkish brothers who
donated the Qurbani cattle and gift packages and ITHS that organized this grand
distribution. Some of the villagers who received meat packages told: We are
very happy today because far away from us our Turkish brothers have been with
us with their kind help.
On this holy
occasion Turkish and Bangladeshi brothers exchanged their Eid greetings.
Members of ITHS participating in the organization seemed very happy and they
have been given a warm welcome by the natives.
