DHAKA March 29, 2025 (BSS)- Home Adviser Lieutenant General Md. Jahangir Alam Chowdhury (Retd.) today said the measures taken by the government have made the Eid journey comfortable and unhindered this year.

"Due to various people-friendly initiatives taken by the government and their proper execution, people are doing their Eid journey comfortably and without any hindrance," he said while briefing newsmen after visiting the Gantoli Bus Terminal.

He said they are making all-out efforts on behalf of the government so that people can make the Eid journey smoothly and return to Dhaka safely after the festival.

The Home Minister said they have taken all possible measures to ensure flawless security in the capital and elsewhere in the country. 

He recalled the role of the security forces including police, armed forces, BGB, Ansar and Coast Guard in ensuring security and maintaining law and order.

"They are not going on vacation," he said.

The Home Adviser said that all kinds of steps have been taken to prevent criminal activities including theft, robbery, and snatching in the capital.

Responding to a question from journalists whether there is a threat of conspiracy in the empty Dhaka, the adviser said that by the grace of Allah, there is no threat of such a conspiracy.

"If there is a threat of any conspiracy, we will confront this conspiracy along with the people. If the people are with us, no one will be able to carry out any kind of conspiracy," he said.

During the inspection, the adviser gave necessary instructions to the Traffic Department to keep the bus terminals and entry and exit points of the capital free from traffic jams.

He also instructed the law enforcement agencies to take immediate action if they receive any complaints of passengers being charged more than the fixed fare.
