Southeast Bank provides financial aid to farmers thru Gana Unnayan Kendra

Southeast Bank recently provided financial assistance to grassroots level farmers across the country from its special corporate social responsibility fund to help their cultivation and facilitate purchases of agri-machinery.

The financial assistance was channelled to farmers through Gana Unnayan Kendra, a non-government development organisation, the bank said in a press release.

Md Masum Uddin Khan and Abidur Rahman Chowdhury, deputy managing directors of the bank, handed over a cheque of the financial assistance for farmers to M Abdus Salam, chief executive of Gana Unnayan Kendra, at the bank's head office in Dhaka.

Nuruddin Md Sadeque Hossain, managing director of the bank, attended the programme.

Other senior officials from both organisations, among others, were also present.
