Interim government calls for vigilance against violence

The interim government has strongly condemned the ongoing unrest, arson and loss of life and property in the country and urged the countrymen to be on the highest alert. In a special statement today, Friday, the government's clear position on the current situation was highlighted.

The government statement said that while the country is moving forward through a historic and democratic change, some isolated extremist groups are trying to create chaos.

"The progress of our long struggle will not be stopped by the chaos or avoidance of the path of peace by a handful of people."

Remembering the sacrifice of Inqilab Manch spokesperson Sharif Osman Hadi, the government said that the upcoming elections and referendum are not just a political process, but a national commitment. The statement said that in order to build the Bangladesh of Shaheed Hadi's dream, we must abandon hatred and revenge and show restraint and responsibility. Not giving in to provocations will be a proper respect for his memory.

The government has expressed its tough stance in the wake of several recent violent incidents.

The government has assured full justice, calling the attack on journalists an "attack on truth".

It strongly condemned the beating to death of a Hindu in Mymensingh and said, "There is no place for any kind of atrocity in the new Bangladesh." Everyone involved in this crime will be brought to justice and no one will be spared.

In the final part of the statement, the government has requested every citizen of the country to avoid the path of violence and hatred. It has called for maintaining peace and collectively resisting any provocative activities at this critical moment in the country.
