Construction of the model mosque and Islamic cultural center in Fulgazi, Feni, remains incomplete even after eight years. Initiated by the Islamic Foundation in 2019, the project was planned on 40 decimals of land opposite the local upazila complex, with an initial budget of Tk 12 crore. The first contractor, Raju Enterprise, halted work soon after the foundation was laid. The Public Works Department later canceled the earlier tender and reissued a new work order in January 2024, raising the cost to Tk 14 crore. The joint contractors, Messrs Lucky Enterprise and Mohsin & Brothers, began work again on January 1, 2025, assisted by Aradhana Enterprise.
Despite the renewed effort, the project remains unfinished two months past the contractual deadline, with about 75 percent of the work completed. The main structure stands, but plastering, tiling, finishing, and road connection tasks are still pending. Site engineer Omar Faruk said finishing work is ongoing and may take four more months. Public Works engineer A.K.M.S. Shafiquur Rahman cited fuel shortages as a cause of delay but assured that efforts continue for timely completion.
Local worshippers have expressed frustration over the prolonged delay, while officials maintain regular supervision to expedite completion.
