This initiative was the idea of Bagerhat-2 (Sadar-Kachua) constituency Member of Parliament (MP), Sheikh Sarhan Naser Tanmoy, so that people don’t have to go to the markets which would eventually decrease the chances of Covid-19 virus spreading among the people.
Implemented by the district Juba League, 100 vans are serving the 10 unions of the Sadar upazila.
