While introducing the Human Rights Bill-2026, the Minister emphasized that the administration is prioritizing the protection of civil liberties over political vengeance, asserting that the government is firmly committed to "walking the path of human rights."

He further characterized the Zia family and the BNP as the most significant victims of rights violations in the country's post-1971 history, noting that the Prime Minister herself has experienced extreme abuses, which reinforces the government's resolve to ensure such systemic crimes never recur.
