Dhaka, March 27 -- The World Food Programme (WFP) of the United Nations has reversed its decision to reduce food aid for Rohingyas residing in Bangladesh's refugee camps, following concerns over the impact of the cut.

In the latest development, the residents of various camps along the coast of Cox's Bazar will now receive a monthly food allocation of $12 per person, down from the previous $12.50, UNB reports.

Mohammad Mizanur Rahman, the Refugee, Relief, and Repatriation Commissioner (RRRC), said, "WFP has informed us of this decision in a letter, which will come into effect from April 1."

He added that Rohingyas living in Bhasan Char would receive $13 per person, one dollar more than those in Cox's Bazar.
