RANGAMATI, Dec 29, 2025 (BSS) - The para-military Border Guard Bangladesh 
(BGB) has provided humanitarian aid to the families affected by the fire in 
the remote Chhota Harina area under Barkal upazila here this morning.

Harina Zone BGB Commander Lieutenant colonel Imrul Kayes Mehedi donated the 
construction materials to fire victim Samar Kanti Chakma for the 
reconstruction of his burnt homestead, said a BGB release here today.

He also distributed winter clothes (blankets) and essential food items to the 
fire victims in the area.
 
Earlier on December 26, a fire broke out at the homestead of Samar Kanti 
Chakma under the remote Jirakhamar BGB camp in the upazila.

Following the fire, the house of Samar Kanti Chakma was entirely destroyed. 
However, the BGB camp in Jirakhamar came to assist the victims of the fire as 
part of its role in disaster management and humanitarian aid.
