"As a law-enforcing agency the role of police is indispensable in establishing rule of law in the country."

"Role of police and RAB (Rapid Action Battalion) has been very laudable in curbing militancy along side protecting law and order."
President Zillur Rahman also laid emphasis on the importance of people's cooperation in improving the country's law and order situation, saying that an environment should be created so that people could spontaneously come forward to assist the police.
