Shipping Minister Shahjahan Khan MP on Friday morning said, seeing developments under Sheikh Hasina government, former Prime Minister Khaleda Zia now raving and delivering delirium speeches.
The shipping minister said this while inaugurating placement of two new utility ferry vessels named as Krishnachura and Hasnahena and two rocker vehicles at Laharhut point of Barisal connecting Mongla-Barisal-Chittagong route and southern region.
Father of the nation Bangabandhu was the first constitutional president of Bangladesh, while Ziaur Rahman was not an elected president. Even after knowing these facts Khaleda Zia and her son Tarek Zia trying to deform the history by incoherent talking. They talking those raves because they realized their faults of becoming powerless by boycotting national election, Shahjahan Khan told.
Khaleda Zia succeeded to change her physical appearance, but failed to change face and fate of the country by killing people in blasts, torching transports, the shipping minister explained.
During the BNP-led governments, Barisal region has many ministers, mayor, lawmakers, but failed to develop the region. AL always came to power for development and so people should give vote on boat-symbol of AL for continuing the trend of development, the shipping minister claimed.
Abul Hasanat Abdullah MP, standing committee chairman of the parliament for local government, rural development and cooperative, Talukdar Md. Yunus, AL lawmaker Manjurul Islam, shipping ministry secretary, Mojibor Rahman, chairman Bangladesh Inland Water Transport Corporation, Md. Gaus, divisional commissioner, Md Shohidul Alam, deputy commissioner, Saidur Rahman Rintu, sadar upazila chairman of Barisal, were also present in the ceremony.
