Dhaka, Nov. 10 -- BNP MP Rehana Akter Ranu on Monday urged the government to take immediate steps to ensure that no Bangladeshi citizen is lured into or used in foreign war zones, describing it as an administrative and moral responsibility of-0 the state.

Drawing the attention of the Expatriates' Welfare Minister to the issue, she demanded the immediate repatriation of Bangladeshis currently trapped in the Russia-Ukraine war.

Ranu raised the issue on Monday under Rule 71 of the Rules of Procedure in Parliament, chaired by Deputy Speaker Kaiser Kamal.

She said a group of Bangladeshis had travelled to Russia after taking high-interest loans and selling their homesteads, lured by false promises of guaranteed jobs and better lives.
