Referring to the declining trend in Covid fatalities and infections the minister said the country’s economy has been doing well compared to other countries. He urged the people to maintain health guidelines to ward off the virus.
Zahid said the August 15 massacre of Bangabandhu and his family members in 1975 was linked with the attempt to kill Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina in the August 21 grenade attack in 2006.
He called for remaining alert against anti-government conspiracy of BNP, Jamaat and Hefazat-e-Islam.
