There is no security threat over the Durga Puja celebrations, said Home Affairs Adviser Lt Gen (retd) Jahangir Alam Chowdhury yesterday.

“Adequate security measures have been taken at 33,000 puja mandaps across the country and members of Ansar, police, Rab, BGB, and Army personnel will be deployed to ensure security,” he said while talking to reporters after visiting the Ramakrishna Mission Puja Mandap in Narayanganj.

“CCTV cameras have been installed at all mandaps and this year’s celebration will be vibrant and joyful. There is no lack of security,” the adviser said.
