Northern Bangladesh deserves more attention
There is no doubt that the USD 24.45 billion soft loan on 27 different projects, along with the USD 13.6 billion investment on 13 joint venture agreements with China will play a great role for the economic development of Bangladesh. Most of the projects including railway - road construction, infrastructure, power development and industrialisation are centred on the south-east or south-west region of the country. But some development projects should be taken at the northern part of the country as the territory is already lagging behind in different sectors compared to others.
We can all agree that overall development will not be fruitful if some portion of the country is deprived.
