A Supreme Court lawyer on Sunday served a legal notice on Foreign Minister AK Abdul Momen requesting him to resign within 48 hours amid mass criticism over his controversial remark.

Advocate Md Ershad Hossain Rashed sent the notice to the Foreign Minister this morning.

Joining a Janmashtami programme at JM Sen Hall in Chattogram on Thursday (August 18), Foreign Minister Momen said, "I requested the Indian government to do whatever (they) needed to keep Hasina in power."

He said he made the request during his visit to India.

He said the Sheikh Hasina government was needed for ensuring religious harmony in Bangladesh.
