Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has given instructions to the authorities concerned to make corrections in the list of Razakars list after proper scrutiny.
Road Transport and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader disclosed the matter while speaking to reporters after a meeting at Awami League's central office in Dhaka's Bangabandhu Avenue on Wednesday.
He said: "It has come to our attention that there are some flaws in list of Razakars, which was recently published."
Quader, also Awami League general secretary, said: "Following the matter, the prime minister has instructed the Liberation War and Home ministries to revise the entire list and make those corrections."
The senior Awami League leader also mentioned that the Ministry of Liberation War Affairs have already expressed their regrets for the mistakes and promised to amend the list.
The Liberation War Ministry on Sunday published the first installment of the list containing names and addresses of 10,789 Razakars, who collaborated with the Pakistani occupation forces during the 1971 Liberation War.
However, the list of razakars apparently includes names of several freedom fighters and pro-liberation individuals. There are also reports that the list contains the names of many individuals multiple times.
The matter came to light when members of some of these families, including one from the Hindu community, took to social media to vent anger and humiliation over the matter, a day after the list was published.
In light of all this, Liberation War Affairs Minister AKM Mozammel Huq and Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal, whose offices were responsible for preparing the list, traded blame over the errors.
Since Monday, protests were held in a number of districts across Bangladesh, slamming the Liberation War Ministry and calling for immediate correction; while some even demanded the annulment of the published list.
