57 surrendered extremists get prime minister's aid worth Tk 5.5m

A total of 57 extremists, who came back to normal life after surrendering to the administration, in Rajshahi have received the prime minister's financial assistance worth Tk 5.5 million.

Rajshahi’s Deputy Commissioner (DC) Abdul Jalil handed over the cheques to the 57 people during a function at his office on Wednesday, reports BSS.

The deputy commissioner said Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has taken responsibility for the surrendered people.

“So, she is extending support to them in the month of Ramadan,” the official said.

DC Jalil thanked the surrendered extremists for returning to normal life and said, "Extremists are rehabilitated on the instructions from visionary leader Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina so that a section of society cannot impede the country's advancement by going astray."

He said there is no chance for the surrendered extremists to look back.

“Everyone will have to involve themselves with the development activities,” he added.

Joint Director of National Security Intelligence Sanwar Hossain, Additional DC Shariful Haque and Additional Superintendent of Police Ifte Khayer Alam were present.
