Every year during the month of Ramadan our government and the political parties arrange iftar party almost every day. This kind of luxurious arrangements cost a lot of money. When the monga affected North Bengal people cannot afford a meal a day, it is very painful for us to watch such wastage.

As a poor country, we should stop this kind of expensive iftar party. Instead, we can bring smile to the faces of poor people by donating this money to them. Our government and all other political parties should realise the truth and refrain from arranging such things.
