Tasnim Alam rejects the false report of Bangladesh Pratidin; denies Jamaat’s alleged link with ISI

Central Publicity Affairs Secretary of Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami, Professor Md. Tasnim Alam has issued the following statement on 22 December 2018 denouncing the baseless propaganda of Bengali daily Bangladesh Pratidin as they have published a false report against Jamaat-e-Islami today.

“Bangladesh Pratidin’s today’s report is the continuation of their yearlong propaganda against Jamaat-e-Islami. I am condemning and protesting this report.

Earlier, Bangladesh Pratidin published another report propagating against Jamaat-e-Islami. Jamaat’s Secretary General Dr. Shafiqur Rahman protested that report instantly. He further stated that Jamaat has no connection with ISI. But Bangladesh Pratidin did not publish his rejoinder. Rather, they are continuing their propaganda shamelessly. Their attitude indicates that it has become their bad habit to conduct false and intentional propaganda against Jamaat-e-Islami. Their repeated denial of publishing Jamaat’s rejoinder also proved lack of their report’s credibility.  

Responding to their baseless report, I want to re-assert that Jamaat has no nexus with ISI. So, it is absolutely false claim from their part that Jamaat had selected its candidates as per the given list of ISI.

Therefore, I am urging the authorities of Daily Bangladesh Pratidin to be refrained from making false propaganda against Jamaat-e-Islami.
