JHALAKATI: Industries Minister Amir Hossain Amu said the present government will continue to work for the overall development of police.
“The present government has given police the honour and increased their status. Work for the development of the force, including promotion, will continue,” he said.
The minister was addressing the annual sports competition programme of police at Jhalakati Police Lines ground Friday.
Amu said policemen were the first victims of the countrywide anarchy carried out by BNP-Jamaat ahead of the January 5 parliamentary elections. “Police members were killed and they came under attacks frequently during the anarchy,” he noted, according to a news agency.
