She announced that the government will take responsibility for the families of those killed in the movement and all injured individuals will receive treatment free of charge.

“We have contacted an American organization called the ‘Seva Foundation’ and sent them a list of individuals who have become blind or are experiencing eye problems,” she said.

She said, Seva Foundation informed us that they will bring doctors to the country for treatment as soon as possible. The injured will be treated at Ispahani Islamia Eye Institute, National Eye Science Institute and Hospital, Chittagong and Dinajpur Eye Hospitals.

The health advisor said We are in discussions with various donor agencies and have also contacted the World Bank to arrange for a team of doctors to come from abroad for proper treatment. We are working to make this happen.
