Industries Minister Amir Hossen Amu said the ruling Awami League (AL) government does not endorse any law against Holy Quran and the Sunnah, reports BSS.
After the election in 2008, Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina announced that no act against Holy Quran and Sunnah will be passed in the parliament and the ruling AL has kept its promise, said the minister.
The minister made the comments while addressing a views-exchange meeting at a local community centre in Jhalkhathi town.
The AL government has constructed 560 model mosques in each districts and upazilas, said the minister in his address. The government always provides assistance to the religious affairs activities, he noted.
Meanwhile, Food Minister Advocate Qamrul Islam accused the BNP-Jamaat clique of making the upcoming 11th national parliament elections questionable.
The BNP-Jamaat will try to create anarchy on the election day as the BNP is a terrorist party," the minister said while speaking at a women's rally in Ghatarchar area of Keraniganj on Sunday afternoon.
The people is now gripped with enthusiasm as the polls fever is running high, said the minister.
The 11th parliament elections will be held like the 1970 polls, he added.
Criticising the role of the BNP, the minister said the party had not carried out development works for the welfare of the people. Even BNP founder president Ziaur Rahman came to power illegally and patronised communal politics in the country.
On the other hand, he said, "We have liberated our country but not yet achieved economic freedom… We are now enjoying full freedom under the leadership of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina."
Sheikh Hasina has secured 26th position in the ranking out of 100 great leaders across the world, the minister added.
