Dhaka, Aug 26 (V7N)- Home Minister Salahuddin Ahmed has said that the BNP government has been in office for six months and there has not been a single incident during this period in which law enforcement agencies failed to arrest an accused.
He made the remarks at a Milad and Doa program organized on the occasion of holy Eid-e-Miladunnabi (PBUH) in front of the BNP central office in Nayapaltan, Dhaka, on Wednesday (August 26) morning.
The Home Minister said that not only the police but also other law enforcement agencies will be held accountable for their responsibilities.
Referring to the recent murder incident in Rangpur, Salahuddin Ahmed said the accused were arrested within a reasonable period. He said it would not be appropriate to expect everything to be resolved immediately within a short period.
Meanwhile, BNP Acting Secretary General Ruhul Kabir Rizvi said the people of Bangladesh want to live peacefully and meet their basic needs, including food and livelihood. According to him, the BNP government is working to fulfill these expectations in line with its election manifesto.
Rizvi said that following the ideals and teachings of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) can help establish peace and harmony in society.
He urged everyone to follow the path shown by the Prophet (PBUH) and work toward building a peaceful society.
