Apprehending dahibada and aludam to be hygienically harmful to the flood victims, the district administration did not permit the city Dahibada Sellers Union to distribute those among the flood victims in Balianta block.

Loading the relief items, including 200 vessels of dahibada, 40 bags of water pouches, 100 litres of milk and 5,000 biscuit packets in a truck as many as 200 authorised dahibada sellers in the city moved to the flood-hit areas to distribute among the affected people.

However, they had to return with their items, as the district administration did not let them distribute those among the flood victims.
