Bangladeshi Farmer kils 83,000 Rats for a 14-Inch TV
Mokhairul Islam, 40, won a first prize of a colour television for killing some 83,450 rats in the past nine months in Gazipur district near the South Asian country’s capital, Dhaka. He collected their tails for proof.
“I am so happy to get this honour,” he said after receiving a 14-inch television and a certificate amid cheers at an official ceremony packed with 500 farmers and officials. “I had no idea that the government gives prizes for this.”
“This is an exciting moment. I will continue to kill them,” he vowed.
