The government is not arranging any festival to mark the opening of the Padma Bridge, said Information and Broadcasting Minister Hasan Mahmud.
He said this while talking to reports at the Secretariat on Monday.
He said: "There will just be an opening ceremony and a public rally on June 25.
Adding that Padma Bridge has become a “symbol of our ability," he said people across the country are jubilant as the construction of the bridge has become a reality despite opposition from BNP.
“BNP doesn’t want any inaugural programme over the opening of the Padma Bridge and they hatched conspiracy to foil its opening. But their conspiracies have been thwarted,” added Hasan.
