Staff Reporter :
Foreign Minister Dr AK Abdul Momen said, it is a matter of pleasure that the Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi is coming to Bangladesh.
The government will make arrangements to execute maximum security to Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi during his stay in Bangladesh, FM said.
“This is a democratic country and people of different views are here. But we have no reason to worry of it. We will give him (Narendra Modi) maximum security,” he said.
The minister was speaking at a press conference at the Foreign Service Academy in Dhaka on Saturday, over the scheduled visit of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Dr Abdul Momen said the government is not worried about the fundamentalists’ opposition to the Indian premier’s Bangladesh visit.
“Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina knows how to control the fundamentalists. The people of Bangladesh also know how to deal with them,” he told the reporters.
In a press briefing, State Minister for Foreign Affairs Shahriar Alam said, “Those who believe in the spirit of the liberation war, consider Bangabandhu as the architect of our independence, should refrain from such sorts of programmes and opposition,” he said.
Narendra Modi will arrive in Bangladesh on 26 March, to join the ongoing 10-day celebrations of the birth centenary of Bangabandhu and golden jubilee of Bangladesh’s independence.
