Environment, Forests, and Climate Change Adviser Syeda Rizwana Hasan said Aramco, Saudi Arabia’s national oil company, has agreed to supply LNG to Bangladesh at cheaper prices.

“Currently, Bangladesh imports LNG from two countries. Aramco has agreed to supply LNG to us at cheaper prices,” she said during a press briefing.

The press briefing was held at the Foreign Service Academy this afternoon.

 Regarding the country’s law and order, Rizwana said there is no scope for “mob justice” or “moral policing” in the country, and the interim government remains strict about avoiding such incidents. 

“Our stance is very clear…there is no room for mob justice or moral policing in Bangladesh,” she said, adding that the government does not support any violence against women. 

Referring to school admissions, the adviser said the children of the families of July uprising martyrs and victims will get some admission facilities for one time, but this has no relation to the quota.

She said children of about 1,200 families will get the chance for one time, she added. 

The Chief Adviser’s Press Secretary, Shafiqul Alam, Deputy Press Secretaries Apurba Jahangir and Abul Kalam Azad Majumder, and Assistant Press Secretary Suchismita Tithi were also present at the press briefing.
