“There’s no fear among people during hartal hours as the law
enforcers were directed to take action against the anarchists in case of
any violence,” he said while talking to journalists at his office on
Thursday.
The home minister said what the BNP-Jamaat wanted to gain through the strike would not be achieved.
About the affected minority families, Alamgir said an initiative had
been taken to provide compensation to the affected Hindus whose houses
and temples had been damaged by Jamaat-Shibir activists.
“Those who tortured the Hindus and vandalised their houses and
temples are coward,” he said adding that they would be brought to book.
The minister claimed that now the law and order was under control as
the law enforcement agencies were properly maintaining the order.
Replying to a question regarding the killing of a Jubo League
activist in a clash between Awami League and BNP-Jamaat activists in
Bholahat upazila of Chapainawabganj, the minister said the ruling party
men could take revenge but they did not.
Later, the minister welcomed the Amnesty International report on protecting the Hindu minority in the country.
Replying to another question about the prime minister’s call to form
‘Terrorism Prevention Committee’ in every ward, union, upazila and
district to resist BNP-Jamaat anarchy, State Minister for Home Samsul
Haque Tuku said the authorities concerned, including Olamas across the
country, have been directed to form ‘Terrorism Prevention Committee’.
Tuku said BNP-Jamaat was carrying out anti-state activities for damaging the Liberation War spirit.
