Be true friend of coastal people: PM to coast guard

Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina today called upon the Bangladesh Coast Guard (BCG) to be “true friend” of the coastal people by establishing guardianship at the sea.

“The motto of the force (BCG) is ‘Guardian at Sea’ which means to establish yourself as true friend of the coastal people,” she said while addressing 28th founding anniversary function of the BCG and the BCG Day-2023 at the Coast Guard Headquarters in capital’s Sher-e-Banglanagar.

The premier highly praised the Coast Guard personnel as they are standing beside the innocent and helpless people in the coastal belts by warding off many criminal acts.

She said her government has been working to transform the Coast Guard into a modern and up-to-date force with knowledge of information technology.

“We want our Coast Guard to be built as a developed and powerful force with knowledge of modern information technology,” she said.dhngkfdvk
