Serious allegations of irregularities have surfaced in the construction of a road guide wall under the Local Government Engineering Department (LGED) in Shibchar upazila of Madaripur. Locals discovered that banana trees were used beneath the brickwork of the wall instead of solid soil or concrete beams. The incident occurred at Char Kakir intersection in Ward 7 of Shiruyail Union and spread widely on social media, drawing strong criticism from residents.
According to local sources, the guide wall construction on the road from Sadekabad through Sipaikandi to Munshikandi began about six months ago and has faced complaints of slow progress and substandard materials. Contractor Alomgir Jamaddar denied ordering such work and promised to rebuild the section properly. LGED officials acknowledged possible irregularities during the election period and said the faulty section would be redone. District Executive Engineer Badal Chandra Kirtania stated that such negligence in government work would not be tolerated, while the Upazila Nirbahi Officer confirmed that necessary actions were being taken.
Authorities are investigating the incident, and corrective construction has been promised to ensure compliance with proper standards.
