In the letter, sent to the ministry on September 1, the company cited the existing security crisis due to militant attacks in both Bangladesh and India as the reason behind seeking security by army members at the centre. The letter said hundreds of people work at the centre every day, a good number of whom are foreign nationals, but the establishment, categorised as a key-point installation (KPI), has only 40 Ansar members for security. That is why, considering the circumstances, the PGCB asked for army members to strengthen the security of the KPI establishment. “The present security system of this sophisticated establishment is not sufficient,” said PGCB Managing Director Md Masum Al Biruni when the Dhaka Tribune contacted him on Sunday. Work to bring 500MW more power is in progress.
