Govt withdraws 41 NGOs from Rohingya camps

Staff Correspondent, Sylhet: Foreign minister AK Abdul Momen on Saturday said 41 non-government organisations (NGOs) have been withdrawn from all kinds of activities in Cox’s Bazar Rohingya camps for their wrongdoings.

A total of 139 NGOs have been operating in the Rohingya camps since the Rohingya crisis began in August 2017, he said.

The foreign minister came up with the disclosure while inaugurating waste management activities at Dakshin Surma of Sylhet City Corporation.

Momen further said actions will be taken against the NGOs if they do something going beyond their terms and references.
