Girl Seeks Help For Covid Positive Mother On Facebook. Biplab Deb Responds

The girl said that her family of four lives in a makeshift single room, and she cannot afford a study table.

Barsha Das, a student of Class 8 at a school near here, is on cloud nine as Tripura Chief Minister Biplab Kumar Deb, taking a note of her request on Facebook, has sent her a study table, medicines for her ailing mother, and packets of food items. Addressing the chief minister, Barsha Das recently posted a video, where she said that her family of four lives in a makeshift single room, and she cannot afford a study table. In another message earlier this week, the 14-year-old girl said that her mother was down with COVID-19, and the family needs food and medicine. Mr Deb, after coming across her messages, immediately asked officials to extend all possible help to her, according to a source in the government.
