More than 80,000 troops to be deployed for upcoming elections, says Home Affairs Advisor

More than 80,000 army personnel will be deployed in the upcoming national elections, said Home Affairs Advisor Lieutenant General (retd) Jahangir Alam Chowdhury, in addition to the police Ansar. In addition, members of the Navy, BGB, and RAB will be in the field. The Home Affairs Advisor gave this information after visiting the polling station at Tegharia High School in Keraniganj on Monday (August 11) morning. He said that police members will have body cameras during the election. The government will make all efforts to ensure that the election is fair and festive. At this time, the advisor sought the cooperation of political parties and the public. He said that innocent people should be careful not to fall under the law. Many people have been filed cases in July and August for greed. The Home Ministry is trying to ensure that no innocent person is harassed. Regarding the law and order situation, he said that the situation has improved since last July. No one came to the police station. The Ansar force was rebelling, the other forces were not that active either. We may not have reached the desired situation yet. However, given the level at which the situation is, we have no problem holding elections. However, there is no news that the law and order situation was good after the independence of Bangladesh.
