Opposition Leader Dr. Shafiqur Rahman told the national parliament on Monday that the proposed budget lacks any guideline for recovering laundered money and called for strong initiatives to bring it back. Speaking during the general discussion on the proposed budget, he also suggested changing the fiscal year from July–June to January–December to align with the calendar year and improve efficiency. The session, presided over by Speaker Hafiz Uddin, began at 10:30 a.m.
Dr. Rahman argued that recovering even one-ninth of the laundered funds would eliminate the budget deficit and emphasized that such money belongs to the people. He urged visible and effective steps to ensure accountability and prevent future illicit transfers. The opposition leader also discussed education, health, expatriate welfare, and corruption, urging reforms and equitable treatment for all sectors. He called for better allocation for Qawmi madrasa and Ebtedayee education, improved healthcare infrastructure, and stronger research funding in universities.
He further proposed forming a task force to address expatriate workers’ issues and demanded increased allowances for freedom fighters. Rahman concluded by urging cooperation between government and opposition to ensure justice, transparency, and national progress.
