Liberation War Affairs Minister AKM Mozammel Haque has backed off from his statement of restricting the movement of unvaccinated people over 18 years after August 11.
The Liberation War Affairs Ministry on Wednesday issued a media statement revising its minister’s previous remarks.
“All citizens above 18 years will be brought under vaccination in phases. But the unvaccinated ones above 18 years won’t be allowed to go out after August 11. This statement was published in different media and Liberation War Affairs Minister Mozammel Haque has withdrawn this part of his statement,” the media release says.
Meanwhile, the Health Ministry on Wednesday said the statement restricting the movement of unvaccinated people above 18 years which was circulated in social media is not of the ministry.
Health Minister Zahid Maleque said no such decision or proposal was made or given from his ministry, said its public relations officer.
