Politics is a place for healthy cultural practice: Jamaat Ameer

 
"Politics is a home for healthy cultural practice where there is no room for terror and where there is no room for the criminals and terrorists," he said.

He made the remarks while exchanging views with journalists at the Bagerhat Circuit House auditorium this morning.

The meeting was chaired by Bagerhat district Jamaat Ameer Maulana Rezaul Karim.

Replying to a question from journalists about reopening closed media outlets, he said, "Media is an important part of society. Journalists must play a responsible role in presenting accurate information to the people."

He also stressed the need for ensuring freedom and professional safety for the journalists.
