Don’t publish any news that hampers country’s image: PM urges journalists

Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina today urged the journalist community not to publish any such news or criticise in such a way so that the country’s advancement and image are hampered.

“Don’t publish any such news that will malign the country’s image and hamper its ongoing advancement,” she said.

The premier made the remarks while distributing cheques of financial assistance worth about Taka 3.41 crore to 438 sick, insolvent and injured journalists and their family members at her office here.

Sheikh Hasina said she always welcomes constructive criticism from the media outlets so that we can correct ourselves.

“Constructive news help to the government to run the country,” she said.

The Prime Minister said the media will definitely criticise the government and enjoy the freedom, but that should be done with due responsibilities and dutifulness.

“I want that the advancement of Bangladesh is not hampered anymore due to irresponsible journalism,” she said.বিস্তারিত
