Akhtar Hossain, Member Secretary of the National Citizen Party (NCP) and newly elected Member of Parliament for Rangpur-4 (Kaunia-Pirgacha), said he now represents all constituents regardless of political affiliation. Speaking as the chief guest at a quarterly exchange meeting at Kaunia Upazila Parishad premises on Monday morning, he expressed gratitude to voters for electing him and emphasized that democracy’s beauty lies in voting.

He reiterated his pre-election promise to hold quarterly meetings with grassroots people to hear their opinions and ensure transparency in local development. Hossain stated that he has publicly shared details of government allocations on social media, including funds distributed to religious institutions, to prevent allegations of misuse. He disclosed that of the 1 million taka allocated for Eid-ul-Fitr, 550,000 taka went to Pirgacha and 450,000 taka to Kaunia.

Concluding his remarks, Hossain urged residents to support development initiatives based on transparency and collective participation for the progress of the area.
