Interim government’s adviser for power, energy and mineral resources, Faozul Kabir Khan, announced that corruption over the past fifteen and a half years in Bangladesh’s power and energy sector has been identified. He said all related documents have been handed over to the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) and expressed hope that the commission will take effective action. He made the remarks on Sunday at the Power Division building during the launch of five new energy-related apps and a review meeting on the sector’s master plan.
Khan told reporters that the interim government had inherited the power and energy sector in a dire financial state and had worked to stabilize it. He noted that implementing any major plan in this sector requires at least three years, and time constraints prevented completion of several initiatives. He also emphasized his personal transparency, stating that his assets had not increased during his tenure.
The adviser added that a national committee led by a High Court judge had reviewed the previous government’s agreement with Adani and submitted a report with recommendations. The next elected government will decide on further action.
