Gazipur-4 opposition lawmaker Salah Uddin told parliament that mega corruption has begun through the country's mega projects. Speaking during Thursday’s budget discussion, he accused officials of large-scale embezzlement, including Tk 17 crore weekly from the school feeding program and irregularities in canal excavation projects. He also claimed that honest officials were being removed to promote corruption.
Salah Uddin criticized the proposed budget, calling it a debt-dependent and anti-poor plan. He said prices of essential goods, electricity, fuel, and LPG had already risen before the budget presentation. He described the budget as one that burdens small traders through advance taxes and reduces allocations for agriculture, rural development, and anti-corruption efforts. He compared the tax system to colonial exploitation and argued that corruption within the National Board of Revenue was worsening the fiscal situation.
The MP demanded special allocations for his constituency, including a modern cold storage facility, anti-drug and youth gang operations, and expansion of a highway from Rajendrapur to Tok via Kapasia.
