Debashish Bhowmik, a jewellery shop worker in Narail, and his team have secured the second plot in the country’s largest Eid campaign ‘Nagad e Jomi’ launched by Nagad.

Pintu Bhowmik and Shoma Mohammad were the two other members of the team, said a press release on Monday.


National cricket team all-rounder Mahmudullah Riyad handed over this piece of land to the winners at Purbachal Probashi Polli’s project site.

‘From Narail, Debashish’s team along with Muhammad Solaiman, deputy chief marketing officer of Nagad Ltd. was flown in a helicopter to the project site. Lucky winners participating in the campaign will receive several other plots as gifts,’ the release said.

On the occasion of Eid, Nagad has now come up with a never-seen-before offer for its customers to win land in Dhaka. Purbachal Probashi Palli Group, a leading real estate company in Bangladesh, has joined hands with Nagad as the land partner for the ongoing mega campaign. During the campaign, Nagad customers stand a chance to win dream plots in Dhaka by following three easy steps.

They can also win many other exciting mega gifts including SUV, motorbikes, TVs, fridges, smartphones worth TK 20 crore, on individual transactions using this MFS.

In this campaign, the first plot was won by garment worker Rasel Ahmed and his team. Narail’s Debashish Bhowmik and his team clinched the second plot. Debashish and Pintu are jewellery shop workers and Shoma Bhowmik is a housewife. Team leader Debashish made a mobile recharge of TK 100 and later, Rasel created this team with his wife Shoma and Pintu. All three of them have active Nagad accounts and regularly remained active in transactions. Consequently, this team’s name emerged as the winner from among many other teams.

The three winners and Pintu’s daughter Purnata Bhowmik were flown to Purbachal from Narail. As soon as they got on the helicopter, the three were ecstatic. After that, Mahmudullah Riyad came to Probashi Palli and took them to the designated plot. The three winners were overwhelmed with joy upon hearing the news of winning the land.

Team leader Debashish said, ‘I saw in a video that it is possible to make transactions with Nagad, form a team and win land. I did not believe it that much. But since I am a Nagad customer, I formed the team just out of curiosity. Now it seems that God has fulfilled my dream through Nagad.’

After winning the land, Shoma Bhowmik, with tears in her eyes, said, ‘The whole day was like a dream to us. We never rode a helicopter in our life – today we felt it like a reward. Then we saw a star like Riyad bhaiya. And finally, we got the land. It seems like we are dreaming.’

After the land handover, Riyad also become emotional. He said, ‘Last year, I handed over a car to a man, belonging to the middle class, on behalf of Nagad. The man’s life has changed. This time I gave a piece of land to this family. Their lives have also changed. I feel, being a witness to changing people’s lives is much bigger than winning a match with bat in hand. I express my heartfelt gratitude to Nagad for giving me this opportunity.’

Mentionable, to participate in the ‘Nagad e Jomi’ campaign, a Nagad customer must make a minimum of TK 100 mobile recharge a minimum of TK 500 payment, or a minimum of TK 1,000 add-money. Following any of the three transactions, they will instantly get a message that will confirm their eligibility to take part in the campaign. Then, a participant will create a team of three having active Nagad accounts, including himself/herself, and everyone in the team will have to remain active in transactions during the campaign period to stay in competition to win land in Dhaka.
