Jamaat-e-Islami lawmaker Saiful Alam Milon from Dhaka-12 sharply criticized Road Transport Minister Sheikh Robiul Alam in parliament on Monday, questioning his statement that this year’s Eid travel was comfortable. Speaking on a point of order, Milon asked how many more people must die before the minister feels discomfort, citing reports that between 170 and 370 people died during the Eid journey period. He also questioned whether the minister would resign over the fatalities.
Milon referred to a bus accident at Daulatdia ferry terminal and criticized the government’s compensation of Tk 25,000 for the deceased and Tk 15,000 for the injured. He argued that in other parliamentary systems, such as Britain’s, a minister would have resigned after such incidents. His remarks followed the minister’s earlier press conference where Sheikh Robiul Alam claimed that Eid travel had been more comfortable than in previous years.
Earlier in the same session, Jamaat MP Shahjahan Chowdhury raised concerns about limited question time in parliament, while BNP MP Zainul Abdin Faruk responded to maintain unity among ministers.
