PM: Terrorism to be curbed in Satkhira

Update : 20 Jan 2014, 08:56 AM

Terrorist activity will be curbed no matter the cost in the district of Satkhira, Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina said.

The premier made the remarks on Monday during a view exchange meeting in Satkhira circuit house.

"The joint forces’ drive will be continued in the district to detain the terrorists," she said.

Hasina is visiting violence-torn areas in Satkhira, which is a known stronghold for the Jamaat, where the Hindu minorities were subjected to various instances of post-election violence.

The PM arrived at Satkhira Stadium at 1:20pm.

She will visit the affected areas that came under attack of the Jamaat-e-Islami and its student wing Chhatra Shibir.

She will also visit the affected Hindu families and houses of Awami League leaders. The PM will address a mass-assembly, organised by the Satkhira Zilla Awami League.

The PM will inaugurate a total of 11 projects including laying the foundation stone for the Satkhira Medical College construction project and the ee-digging of Kopotakkho River.

After the January 5 parliamentary elections, many Hindu families and AL leaders became the victims of attacks perpetrated by Jamaat-Shibir men. Many of them left their houses during arson attacks and many have yet to return.
