Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina on Monday directed the authorities concerned not to destroy any land where three crops are planted and harvested a year.
She issued this directive while chairing the cabinet meeting held at her office in Dhaka.
“The premier has given a clear directive that no triple cropping land can be destroyed. No project can be taken on triple cropping lands. Rather these lands will have to be protected,” said Cabinet Secretary Md Mahbub Hossain briefing reporters at the Bangladesh Secretariat.
He said the government will now monitor the matter of protecting triple cropping lands regularly.
The directive came as different ministries received some proposals for using the lands for development work like solar installation and building construction.
