Bangladesh has made the language of protest more stronger regarding the border killings, Foreign Affairs Adviser Md. Touhid Hossain said.

He said this in response to a question from journalists at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on Tuesday (September 10) about the recent border killings.

"We have made our language of protest more stronger" the Foreign Affairs Adviser said. What we are talking about every moment is a very sensitive matter. Hope India will take this into consideration.

Reiterating the call of Bangladesh to stop the border killings, the foreign adviser said that it is necessary to get out of this situation for the sake of both countries. Because it does not benefit, rather it has a negative effect on the relationship.

He said, we have told them clearly, we condemn this incident. These incidents are playing a very negative role in Bangladesh-India relations. I have never heard anyone say that it is good for India.

The Bangladesh government had earlier called on the Indian government to stop the repetition of such 'heinous acts' and bring those responsible to justice through an inquiry into the border killings.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has lodged a formal protest with the Government of India on September 1, after a girl named Swarna Das (13) of Juri Upazila of Moulvibazar was killed by the Indian Border Security Force (BSF).

Transparency International-US and Transparency International Bangladesh (TIB) have urged the United States government to urgently freeze and repatriate illegal assets smuggled out of Bangladesh.

This information was informed in a notification sent to the media on Tuesday (September 10).

According to the notification, in the letter sent to the US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken and Finance Minister Janet Yellen, the heads of the two organizations urgently called on the Bangladesh government to actively cooperate with the governments of the United States and other related countries to ensure the accountability of the owners of illegal wealth and to bring back the smuggled money.

Earlier, on August 30, TIB and four UK-based anti-corruption organizations had sent a letter to the UK Minister of Foreign Affairs and Overseas Development urging him to freeze the illegal assets of Bangladeshis and send back to the country.

In addition, TIB called for initiatives to bring back money smuggled from Bangladesh to various countries of the world, including Switzerland, European Union countries, Australia, Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong and the United Arab Emirates.

Dengue is spreading again. Five more people have died due to dengue in the last 24 hours. 102 people died this year. And 534 dengue patients were identified in 24 hours.

This information was informed in the press release of the Directorate of Health on Tuesday (September 10).

So far this year, 16819 people have been admitted to hospital with dengue. During this time, 102 people died due to dengue. Among the patients who died of dengue, 51.5 percent were women and 48.5 percent were men.

This year, the possible number of mandaps for Durga Puja across the country is 32 thousand 666. Out of this, there will be 157 mandaps in Dhaka South City and 88 mandaps in North City has been informed by Home Affairs Adviser Lt Gen (Retd) Jahangir Alam Chowdhury.

He said that the musical instruments of the worship hall should be stopped during the Azan and Namaz. Music should be stopped five minutes before Azan.

The Home Affairs Adviser said these things after a meeting with the leaders of the Puja Celebration Council at the secretariat on Tuesday (September 10) about the law and order situation.

He said that there was a discussion about ensuring round-the-clock security at the Puja mandaps. He said that volunteers will be recruited to prevent nefarious activities. Volunteers will be recruited from any citizen of the country. There will be at least three volunteers at night, two during the day.

When asked about border killing, the Adviser said, there was a little discussion about border killing. Therefore, I will only say, I have ordered the concerned authority to take measures to prevent such incidents from happening in the future. I hope this kind of incident will not happen in the future.

The Adviser also said, another problem arises during the Puja, as our people go back and forth, the people from the other side go to see the Puja, and the people from the other side come to see the Puja. I have requested everyone here, this time you build a good Pujamandap in the border belt so that our people do not go beyond to see the Puja. People from the other side should not come to take care of it.
