Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan on Saturday said there is no existence of Taliban and militants in Bangladesh.
“Some miscreants are appearing in different names to create anarchy in the country,” he told the media after the inauguration of a supermarket in Baishmile area of Savar.
“There are many small notorious groups in the country. But they have no capacity to create chaos,” the minister said.
“Bangladesh is a country of peace. Taliban have come to power in Afghanistan and Kabul is located far from Bangladesh. So it has no effect in Bangladesh,” he added.
State Minister for Disaster Management and Relief Md Enamur Rahman, Savar Upazila Nirbahi Officer Md Mazharul Islam, Dhaka District Swechchhasebok League President Haji Imtiaz, Awami League’s Pathalia union unit President Faizal Haque and General Secretary Moazzem Hossain were present, among others, in the function.
