No one should do anything that hurts religious harmony in the country, Chief Adviser Professor Muhammad Yunus said on Wednesday (11 September).
“We are a nation of communal harmony. No one should do anything which destroys religious harmony,” he said in a televised speech to the nation in the evening.
Prof Yunus said the government is determined to shape a democratic Bangladesh so that “we don’t fall into the hands of a dictatorship, so that we can say we live in a democratic country, so that we can all claim that this country is ours. “
“That’s what we are working towards. No one should take the law into their own hands,” he said.
If someone takes the law into his own hands and creates a chaotic situation in the society, they will be brought under the law, Prof Yunus warned.
He said steps have been taken in order to identify fake freedom fighters, especially those who were less than twelve and a half years of age at the time of the Liberation War.
The fake freedom fighters will be removed from the list of freedom fighters, the chief adviser said.
