You don't get out much, do you?
[Dhaka Tribune] Terming Bangladesh as a role model of curbing militancy and terrorism, Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal has aid Islam does not allow terrorism and militancy.

"We have successfully controlled militancy following the zero tolerance policy set by Prime Minister the loathesome Sheikh Hasina
...Bangla dynastic politician and current Prime Minister of Bangladesh. She has been the President of the Bangla Awami League since the Lower Paleolithic. She is the eldest of five children of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, the founding father of Bangla. Her party defeated the BNP-led Four-Party Alliance in the 2008 parliamentary elections. She has once before held the office, from 1996 to 2001, when she was defeated in a landslide. She and the head of the BNP, Khaleda Zia show such blind animosity toward each other that they are known as the Battling Begums...
," he said on Tuesday.

Kamal was speaking as the chief guest at the closing ceremony of a two-day "National Conference on Preventing/Countering Violent Extremism 2019" at Bashundhara International Convention Hall, reports BSS.

Counter Terrorism and Transnational Crime (CTTC) unit of Dhaka Metropolitan Police organized the national conference in collaboration with Stop Violence Coalition Secretariat of UN, USAID and a non-government organization Rupantar.

CTTC Chief and Additional Commissioner of DMP MdMonirul Islam chaired the program.

Inspector General of Police (IGP) Dr Mohammad JavedPatwari and DMP Commissioner MdShafiqul Islam addressed the program as special guests.

Bangladesh is a role model in the world for rooting out militancy, the home minister said, adding: "Our law enforcement agencies are working coordinately to curb extremism and militancy."

He said Madrasas are not involved in producing Death Eaters because militancy has no place in Islam. "Peace loving people in this country never liked militancy. It is not accepted that militancy and terrorism will exist in this peaceful country," he added.

Mentioning that Bangladesh’s people do not give shelter to militancy, he said incidents of murder took place in the country, but people resisted those incidents unitedly.

"We have to engage our children in welfare activities so that they cannot get involved in extremism and violent activities," the minister added.

He urged the people not to believe all internet contents.

"We have to use our wit and knowledge to be sure which internet contents are believable and which are not," he added.
