LGRD and Cooperatives Minister Mohammad Tajul Islam on Saturday said had Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman remained alive, Bangladesh would have become a developed country by 10 years.

The present government, the LGRD minister, said has been working to transform all villages into towns in line with the announcement of the Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina.
“We will reach city facilities to villages. Our goal is to build a developed Bangladesh under the leadership of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina,” Tajul Islam said.
During the meeting, Additional Police Super of Cumilla South district M Abdullah Al Mamun, Laksam Upazila Chairman Advocate Yunus Bhuiyan, Laksam Upazila Nirbahi Officer AKM Saiful Alam, its officials and leaders of Awami League and associate bodies were present.
