Govt to demand separate desk from Facebook for Bangladesh
Tarana Halim, state minister for post and telecom, today said the government will demand to the Facebook authorities to open a separate desk for Bangladesh to uphold its heritage and culture in the social media.
“A meeting with the Facebook authorities will be held in Singapore on March 30. And we will demand for a separate desk for Bangladesh in the meeting so that it can oversee the impact on different issues in Bangladesh,” she told reporters after a meeting at her secretariat office in Dhaka.
Tarana said a proposal will be placed to the Facebook authorities in this regard.
Tarana termed the social media as one of the causes of emergence of militancy in the country and said the menace of militancy is spreading out through the social media.
“We will discuss the issue in the meeting,” she said.
