No compromise with security centering Durga Puja: IGP

Inspector General of Police (IGP) Md Mainul Islam today said they have no intelligence information on any specific threat ahead of the Durga Puja, the largest religious festival of the Hindu community.

"We have no information of any specific threat (centering the Durga Puja). But the police would be on maximum alert with no compromise on the security," he said.

He was replying to a question after emerging from a seminar titled ‘Environmental Sustainability in Tourism: Responsibility of Police’ organized by the Tourist Police at its Tourist Police Headquarters here.

Speaking at the seminar, Mainul said that the tourist police have been working relentlessly to attract local and foreign tourists for boosting the country’s tourism industry by ensuring security accordingly.

He said the tourist police have been working in collaboration with the tourism department, public-private tour operators, local public and NGOs to ensure sustainable environment in the country.

The IGP urged the tourist police to carry out duties in coordination with the forest and environment department to prevent environmental damage.

“The tourism sector plays an influential role in our economic and social development. Everyone should be aware in maintaining sustainable environment while promoting the tourism industry,” he said.

The seminar was attended, among others, by senior police officers, tourism sector officials, representatives of public and private tour operators and students.

The police chief assured the Hindu community of celebrating their largest festival peacefully as police members are on hot pursuit to ensure foolproof security.

Professor Dr Santosh Kumar Dev, Tourism and Hospitality Management Department of Dhaka University, presented the keynote paper at the seminar, while Deputy Inspector General (DIG) of Tourist Police Md Abu Kalam Siddique presided over it.
