Due to the ongoing countrywide lockdown, there is very limited business activity in Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Shilpa Nagar and many workers there have become jobless.
"To ease their suffering, Beza took the initiative to provide food to these people," said Paban Chowdhury.
"The relief work will gradually be extended to all other economic zones in the country," he added.
It should be noted here that Beza has distributed food relief to 7000 families across the country since the coronavirus pandemic hit the country last year.
