"My countrymen, I want to address something. In recent times there have been a news being spread over that my home is being burnt, but this news is totally false. Don't listen to these rumours. I and my family is totally safe" Litton Das wrote in the post. 

"And I truly believe Bangladesh is a non-communal country. We need to focus on how to take this country ahead being together. My Dinajpur people along with the entire country, the way you stood up to save others is truly commendable and I'm gratitude. And I will hope to stay together and will keep aside all kinds of violence from this country. Because this country belongs to all of us" he further added.
