Home Minister Salahuddin Ahmed announced that a special operation is underway across Bangladesh targeting illegal arms, drugs, and extortion. He stated that identified top criminals will face investigation and legal action regardless of their status. The minister made the remarks on Monday, May 4, after the first meeting of the National Committee on Coordination, Management, and Law and Order concerning forcibly displaced Myanmar nationals (Rohingya) at the Secretariat.

During the briefing, the minister also mentioned that the government is considering changing the police uniform following requests from the force, as the current design has not gained wide acceptance. The meeting discussed maintaining law and order inside and outside Rohingya camps, methods for joint operations, and overall management strategies.

He further noted that the latest parliamentary session was among the most successful in history, conducted in a friendly atmosphere without controversy, with constructive participation from both government and opposition parties.
