Bangladesh Police have introduced extensive security arrangements ahead of Christmas and New Year’s Eve to ensure peaceful celebrations across the country. The decision was made during a meeting at the Police Headquarters chaired by Inspector General of Police Baharul Alam, attended by senior officers, Christian community leaders, and representatives from law enforcement agencies.

The meeting emphasized vigilance around churches, tourist zones, and public gatherings, with additional lighting, volunteer deployment, and standby power systems recommended for event organizers. The police chief reaffirmed the force’s readiness to maintain law and order, while community leaders expressed satisfaction with the preparations. Cyber monitoring will be intensified to prevent misinformation or communal incitement on social media, and immediate legal action will be taken against violators.

Authorities also announced stricter enforcement against reckless driving and noise pollution during festivities. Emergency services via hotline 999 will remain active. The measures reflect Bangladesh’s commitment to preserving communal harmony and ensuring safe, inclusive celebrations for all citizens.
