A girl was electrocuted while working at a handloom factory at village Kuripara in Sujanagar upazila yesterday morning. Ill-fated Nasima Khatun, 14, daughter of Qayum Uddin was also a student of class eight of Kuripara Dakhil Madrasa. Critically wounded Nasima died on way to Sujanagar hospital. Because of poverty of her family, Nasima worked at the handloom factory to earn money for pursuing education, her teachers said.
