Steps to be taken to stop piracy: Inu

Information Minister Hasanul Haq Inu on Tuesday said necessary steps will be taken to stop piracy so that people return to movie houses. He made the remarks during a meeting with the executive committee members of Bangladesh Cine Journalist Association (BCJA) at his office. Observing that the film industry has bounced back during the tenure of the Awami League government, led by Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, Inu urged all to come forward to produce quality films. He also assured assistance from the government in this regard. The minister said the film industry creates employment facilities for many people, thus contributing to the economic growth. He said an initiative was taken to mordenise and digitise the Bangladesh Film Development Corporation (BFDC) for the development of the film industry, according to UNB.
