Home Affairs Adviser Jahangir Alam lamented that Bangladeshis have grown intolerant, noting that in the past people acted to prevent incidents, whereas now they are more focused on recording videos. Referring to a recent incident in Gazipur, he assured that all necessary measures would be taken to punish those responsible. He also addressed the viral video of a woman allegedly buried alive in Sherpur, clarifying it was not a recent case. On the recovery of weapons from New Market, he stated that the arms were locally made and urged sellers to be cautious, noting that nearly 700 weapons are currently unaccounted for. Rewards will be offered for their recovery. On election security, he said training has begun, with armed Ansar personnel assigned to presiding officers, and body cameras deployed for monitoring. He stressed that ensuring free and peaceful elections will depend as much on participants as on law enforcement.
