Rajganj, Jan 05 (Siliguri Journal) – In an amazing effort, the people in Bhandari Gachh, Rajganj came together to support a needy elderly couple. They gathered donations to construct a tin house for them. The Binnaguri Gram Panchayat Pradhan, Samijuddin Ahmed, also played a crucial role in aiding the couple.

The elderly couple, Samaru Mohammad (72) and his wife, lived in a hut in the area and didn’t have any children. Samaru, being elderly, couldn’t work anymore, while his wife earned a living as a maid. Recognizing their situation, the community came together, collecting thousands of rupees to construct a new house for them. The new home is built with concrete pillars, wood, and tin to provide a more secure living space for the couple.
