Dhaka, April 14 -- Chief Whip Md Nurul Islam Moni on Tuesday urged the media to maintain balanced reporting by highlighting positive national developments alongside constructive and rational criticism.

Speaking as the chief guest at a programme marking the 27th founding anniversary of Ekushey TV at its Karwan Bazar office in the capital, he cited recent coverage of the Eastern Refinery to stress his point.

The Chief Whip noted that while the refinery's closure received significant coverage, the arrival of two oil ships waiting to be unloaded at the port went largely unreported.

Highlighting the government's commitment to the people, he mentioned that Prime Minister Tarique Rahman is working tirelessly for economic liberation.
