Member of Parliament for Cumilla-4, Hasnat Abdullah, has issued a stern warning against any form of land syndicate operating in Debidwar upazila. He made the statement on Saturday afternoon during a public hearing organized by the upazila administration to raise awareness about land services, improve service quality, and address existing problems.
During the hearing, Abdullah listened to complaints from land service seekers and noted that a powerful syndicate was forcing ordinary people to pay extra money in land transactions. He said those involved would be identified and brought under legal action. The MP also mentioned that many expatriates face harassment from brokers when trying to buy small plots of land with their hard-earned money. He urged victims to file direct complaints and to inform him if issues remain unresolved through land officials.
The event was presided over by Debidwar Upazila Nirbahi Officer Rakibul Islam, with other local officials and residents in attendance.
