Tight security measures have been taken for all programmes centring Sunday's International Mother Language Day in the capital, says Dhaka Metropolitan Police Commissioner Asaduzzaman Mia.
Particularly four-tier security steps have been arranged around Central Shaheed Minar for peaceful observance of the event.
The DMP commissioner briefed it to journalists during a visit in Shaheed Minar around 11:30am Saturday.
Pointing at some media reports that BNP Chairperson Khalade Zia's motorcade to Shaheed Minar could face obstruction, Asaduzzaman Mia said: “We are servant of the People's Republic of Bangladesh. It is our duty to arrange security for every citizen of the country. If anyone feels insecure, we will ensure security for him/her following evaluating the intelligence reports in this regard.”
No criminal would be able to run any attacks on the Shaheed Minar premises by breaking their security arrangements, the DMP boss continued.
