Law is essential to fight digital crime: Mustafa Jabbar
The Posts and Telecommunications Minister Mustafa Jabbar emphasized the need to eliminate this inequality through cultural development, noting that in the virtual world respectable people are criticized while unworthy people are praised. Also mentioning the necessity of law to curb digital crime, he said, law cannot be blamed for the misuse of a law. Young society should be proactive in social media against spreading rumors through digital media. The supporters of freedom, especially the young society, must come forward to take strong efforts to deal with the efforts of the evil forces defeated in the war of liberation from inside and outside the country to destroy the peace, development and stability of the country through rumors, misinformation and propaganda. In this case, our new generation has to fight to build the Bangladesh that Bangabandhu gave birth to.
