Maintain peace, stability in hill districts at any cost

Expressing deep concern over the recent unrest in the hill districts, Jatiya Party Chairman GM Quader emphasised the importance of maintaining peace and stability in the region at all costs, reports UNB.

He made the remarks during a meeting with leaders of the Jatiya Matsyajibi Party and the Jatiya Hawkers Party at his office in the capital on Monday.

"I don't want to see blood stains on the green hills. We are all Bangladeshis, and we believe in unity and harmony. We cannot allow the tourism industry and economic potential of the hilly areas to be jeopardised."

He urged all parties to approach the situation with patience and tolerance and called on Pahari, Bangalees and the administration to remain vigilant.
