Combined patrolling of joint forces from this evening

Joint forces will conduct combined patrolling in key locations across the country, including Dhaka, from this (Monday) evening. 

Chief Adviser’s Press Secretary Shafiqul Alam disclosed this at a press briefing on Monday afternoon after the core committee meeting held in the Secretariat.

The press secretary said, “Today's meeting was very important. Several decisions were taken there. The first decision is that we will increase patrolling in the entire Dhaka city, including those places where the law and order situation has deteriorated. Combined means that the police, army, BGB and navy will conduct combined patrolling together. Checkposts will be set up at many places.”

The government takes up the fresh initiative at a time when the law and order situation in the country is deteriorating even amid the ongoing “Operation Devil Hunt”.

Shafiqul said combined patrolling and the number of checkpoints will be increased at places, including Dhaka, where the law and order condition has worsened.
