The government plans to introduce additional legislation aimed at combating misinformation, clarifies Law Minister Anisul Haque in the National Parliament. However, he asserts that these measures will not impinge upon the freedom of the press in any manner.

Responding to a supplementary question posed by Jatiya Party Member of Parliament Ruhul Amin Howlader on Sunday (February 25), the Law Minister reiterated the government's commitment to upholding freedom of speech and press, both enshrined as fundamental rights in the constitution. He emphasizes that any forthcoming legislation will prioritize the prevention of confusion stemming from false information and fake news.

Law Minister Anisul Haque, standing in for Minister of State for Information and Broadcasting Mohammad A. Arafat during parliamentary proceedings, refrains from specifying the timeline or the exact number of new laws that will be presented in parliament.
