Parliament shocked at loss of lives in hillslides

Parliament on Wednesday expressed deep shock at the death of over 100 people, including four army men, in hillslides in Chittagong, Rangamati and Bandarban.

At the beginning of the day's business, Speaker Dr Shirin Sharmin Chaudhury said the last two days' torrential rains triggered landslides in the hill tracts areas, including Chittagong.

The Speaker conveyed deep sympathy to the bereaved families and prayed for the early recovery of those suffered injuries in the landslides.
