After this, about 1 million (10 lakh) people in Bangladesh live in huts made of bamboo and plastic sheets.

The World Food Program (WFP) said that it will reduce the amount of money received under food help starting next month. Earlier per person used to get 12 dollars, which will now be reduced to 10 dollars. The worldwide epidemic, economic recession has been blamed for the reduction in this amount. WFP has appealed for $125 million (Rs 10 billion) urgently. Malnutrition has long been rampant in the refugee camp, due to which more than a third of the children there are stunted and underweight.
half a million Rohingya children
