Awami League (AL) general secretary Obaidul Quader said on Friday the BNP could not implement any megaprojects during their tenure due to inept economic management, and now feel pain at the success reaped by AL, reports UNB.
"BNP suffers mega-pain when they look at the megaprojects of Bangladesh. Because, the economy of Bangladesh was in such a fragile condition during their regime that they didn't have the mentality, courage, skills and financial capacity, and even couldn't think of any megaproject in the country," he said in a statement.
Quader, also the road transport and bridges minister, said BNP solely indulged in corruption and looting.
He said now Bangabandhu's daughter Sheikh Hasina has made Bangladesh a role model for development with her able leadership, wisdom, integrity and talent.
The AL leader said Bangladesh is now moving forward in the new development trajectory by overcoming hunger, famine, drought and poverty under her leadership.
Quader said his government would be able to continue the development trend and build a prosperous, peaceful and welfare country for the next generations overcoming all anti-state conspiracies taking the people of Bangladesh with them under the leadership of Bangabandhu's daughter, no matter how many evil attempts are made by the followers of Pakistan and the conspirators.
He also harshly criticised BNP secretary general Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir for his remark that 'they had been better in the Pakistani period.'
Quader strongly condemned and protested the remark terming it anti-state conspiracy and seditious speech.
Through this comment, BNP's traditional anti-Bangladesh stance and secret agenda of anti-liberation and ill-politics have been revealed once again, he claimed.
