In 42 days, the society has buried 101 people in their own graveyard in Corona. The Society's own cemetery at the Marlborough Muslim Cemetery in New Jersey has so far buried 97 people. Most of which are free. And four are buried in the Society's cemetery at the Washington Memorial Grave Yard on Long Island.

About thirty of them have been buried in two New Jersey cemeteries. Six people have been buried in the Jalalabad Association of USA's own graveyard at the Washington Memorial Grave Yard on Long Island. Meanwhile, some small and large district associations in New York have their own cemeteries, but the district associations are not giving a place in their graveyards to all the district residents who died in Corona. They are only burying members of their organization who are dying. The residents of those districts have expressed their anger against the various district associations in this incident. They say that the leaders of the organizations are committing extreme immoral acts by not providing graveyards for the people of their districts during this Corona period.
Meanwhile, Bangladesh Society is providing free burial ground for all Bangladeshis in their New Jersey cemetery. The decision was taken at the last meeting of the organization held on March 20 under the chairmanship of their late president Kamal Ahmed. The decision was taken at a meeting of the teleconference executive committee on Kamal Ahmed's proposal before he was admitted to hospital with heart problems, as well as a $ 500 grant to the indigent family of a man who died in Corona. It was also decided to give this financial grant to the followers of Hindu religion. Kamal Ahmed, president of the society, died of corona while undergoing treatment at Elmhurst Hospital. Azad Bakir, an executive member of the society, also died of corona while undergoing treatment at the same hospital.
Meanwhile, it is learned that the society has already provided financial assistance to the families of several Hindus who died of corona. Abdur Rahim Hawlader, acting president of the society, and Ruhul Amin Siddiqui, general secretary, are overseeing the granting of graves and financial assistance to the deceased in Corona.
