When the BNP complains about corruption, even donkeys laugh at them, Information and Broadcasting Minister Dr. Hasan Mahmud ha said.
“BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia and the acting chairman have been punished for corruption and money laundering. The FBI came to Bangladesh and testified against Tareq Rahman,” reports UNB quoting him as saying.
"So when the BNP complains about corruption, even donkeys laugh at them," he told an event in Chittagong on Tuesday.
“My question is: who made Bangladesh five times champions in corruption? The answer is BNP,” he continued.
Hasan Mahmud, also the Awami League's joint general secretary, mentioned fires on school grounds in several districts in 2014.
He said, “BNP carried out arson attacks in 500 schools. New books for students were destroyed in those schools. The BNP did this in the name of resisting the election.”
“Prices of commodities increased due to the Ukraine war and the Corona pandemic,” he said in response to the BNP’s secretary general’s speech on the commodity price hikes.
“Inflation is 8 percent in our country, which is much lower than in other countries,” he added.
Chittagong City Corporation Mayor Bir Muktijoddha Rezaul Karim Chowdhury presided over the event, and Suborna Mustafa MP was the special guest.
