“Government employees would be subjected to dope tests every year. If the result of the dope test of the government employee is positive, legal action will be taken,” he said while talking to reporters on Tuesday afternoon.
 “College-university level teachers and students will also come under the dope test,” the Home Minister further said.
About Afghanistan, the Home Minister the issue of Bangladeshis going to Afghanistan is “unreasonable, it is not realistic”. The government is not worried about the Taliban attack in Afghanistan, as a result, there is no threat of militancy in Bangladesh. It is being closely monitored by the intelligence agencies of Bangladesh, he also said. All communication with that country (Afghanistan), including air travel, is cut off. So there is no opportunity for anyone from Bangladesh to go there, he added.
Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal said the people of our country who have an Islamic attitude – never harbored militancy and extremism, nor did they like it. So what is happening there is their own business. “We have a government, we have a Prime Minister, we are working under her direction on what will happen in our country,” Home Minister also said.
