Sources said, works worth Tk 87 cr were done through LTM (Limited Tender Method) and 15 per cent bribe was taken in the name of high officials particularly Director General of Bangladesh Railway and thus Tk 25 cr was grabbed .
It is mentionable that e-tender was introduced in Bangladesh Railway (BR) on February , 2017 but it is a matter of surprise that no tender was invited following that system .
