Awami League General Secretary and Road Transport and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader on Friday said the exposure of Zia family's corruption has started burning up the BNP with mental agony.
“The corruption of BNP has exceeded fairy tales. Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has honesty and courage in revealing the truth before the people,” he told a winter-cloth distribution ceremony organized by Dhaka City South unit of Awami League marking the 4th anniversary of the present government at Kamalapur Railway Station's West Gate.
Railways Minister Mujibul Haque addressed the function as the special guest while AL Office Secretary Dr Abdus Sobhan Golap and Dhaka City South unit of Awami League General Secretary Shahe Alam Murad, among others, spoke on the occasion. Dhaka City South unit of AL President Abul Hasnat chaired it.
Quader said Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina exposed the corruption of Zia family at the Jatiya Sangsad on the basis of reports of national and international media.
“Media at home and abroad reported that Zia's family is involved in investing in various sectors, including shopping malls and restaurants, in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Singapore and Malaysia through money laundering," he added.
About the remarks of BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir about the design of Padma Bridge, Quader said the BNP leader will be brought to justice if he could not prove any defects in the design of Padma Bridge.
“Mirza Fakhrul claimed that there are defects in the design of Padma Bridge. You should submit facts and information in support of your claim. Otherwise you will have to face the court,” he added.
