Media access to Secretariat restricted for security of fire-hit KPI: CA Press Wing
The decision to restrict journalists access to the Secretariat was taken in view of the safety and security of the Key Point Installation (KPI), which was hit by a devastating fire this week, said the interim government on Saturday.
"The government regrets the inconvenience and seeks cooperation from journalists," Chief Adviser Deputy Press Secretary Abul Kalam Azad Majumder said in a statement.
The government will soon review the existing press accreditation cards and invite fresh applications from all the local and international news outlets for the Press Information Department to issue new accreditation cards, he said.
