Foreign Minister Dr Hasan Mahmud has said the government will not allow anyone to cause instability in the country, reports UNB.

He said there is an effort to turn the anti-quota movement into an anti-state and anti-government movement by exploiting the sentiments of young students.

"The government will not allow this. This government is a very strong government. No political evil force will be allowed to destabilise the country by playing with the sentiments of young students," he said.

Hasan, also the Awami League joint general secretary, came up with the commenets, while talking to journalists at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in the city on Monday.

Hasan said anti-state slogans were chanted from the quota movement on Sunday night. "Through the Liberation War in 1971, this country gained independence, sacrificing the blood of 3.0 million martyrs. Here, chanting slogans in favour of razakars is anti-state."

Earlier, Ambassador of Saudi Arabia to Bangladesh, Essa Youssef Essa Al Duhailan, had a courtesy meeting with the foreign minister and discussed issues of mutual interests.
