"The Covid situation in Bangladesh is under control now and there is no possibility to enforce any lockdown in the country," he told reporters after visiting the under-construction Bangladesh Institute of Health Management Building (BIHM) in Savar.

He said Bangladesh has now enough stock of vaccines and preparation to face any situation.
