Bangladesh Army denies Indian media's emergency meeting report

The Bangladesh Army has rejected a report from an Indian media outlet claiming that top army officials held an emergency meeting. The army called the article "false and fabricated," stating it was based on misleading information. In a statement released by the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), the army described the report as a clear example of poor journalism. They said the article, which discussed an alleged coup threat against Chief Adviser Mohammad Yunus, was misleading and lacked credible sources. The ISPR emphasized that the claims in the article were completely unfounded and described the notion of an impending coup as "deceitful." They criticized the media outlet for spreading sensational stories without proper fact-checking. This incident is not the first of its kind. The ISPR pointed out that the same media outlet had previously published misleading reports about the Bangladesh Army, including one earlier this month, which they had already addressed. The army concluded by urging all media outlets to practice responsible journalism. They stressed the importance of avoiding unfounded claims that could create division and distrust between Bangladesh and India.
