In the question and answer session, the Law Minister answered the questions of the journalists about various sections and penalties of the law. He said that the police will not be able to check the personal device of the citizen under the new law. The law minister also claimed that although this law has a maximum penalty of Tk 25 lakh, it is not always applicable.

On Monday (August 7), the Cabinet meeting approved the Cyber Security Act, almost all of the much-discussed Digital Security Act remained in the proposed law, so the question of many was whether the Digital Security Act is repealed?

Palak said that the draft of the proposed cyber security law was given on the website on Wednesday. The opinion of the participants will be taken. Two weeks have been fixed for this purpose.
