Road Transport and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader said those, who did not show courage and ability to implement a mega project in the country during their regimes are now carrying out mega falsehood about mega projects.
He came up with the remark while speaking at a press conference on contemporary issues at his Secretariat office here.
Quader, also the Awami League General Secretary, said BNP secretary general Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir raised an imaginary allegation about the ongoing mega projects of the country, which is a planned ill target of BNP.
“It is nothing but vengeance and the jealousy of a failed opposition party. BNP is making falsehood to cover up its failures after witnessing mammoth development activities of the government,” he said.
The main aim of BNP is to smear the country’s image by making ceaseless falsehood, the AL general secretary said, adding that they (BNP leaders) had turned the country into a state of corruption when they were in power. After being jealous to the tempo of development activities of the Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s government, they now find the smell of corruption, he said.
He said BNP stigmatized the country by making it the world champions in graft for five times and people did not forget it.
