I need to write a script which has following requirement:

Need to read the filenames from text file and then search for the above read files in the required directory and if match found backup them in a backup folder.
And also need to compare and verify whether the files in the two directories are same.
(need to verify time stamps and files sizes too.)

The text file is like below :
