Kamal: Nothing will stop chemical warehouse eviction drive

Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal has said nothing will stop the authorities from evicting Old Dhaka’s chemical warehouses.

He made the remark while addressing the press at the Home Ministry in Dhaka on Sunday.

"Authorities concerned are working accordingly," he added.
