Law, Justice and Parliamentary Affairs Minister Anisul Huq on Friday said Bangladesh will never give indulgence to communal politics.
"As long as the ideology of Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman and Bangladesh remain alive, communal harmony in our country will also remain intact. An evil force tried to create havoc for the sake of their personal interest, but the people did not accept that," he said.
