Corruption on the rise in country

Says GM Quader

Jatiya Party Chairman GM Quader yesterday said corruption is growing in Bangladesh due to lack of a democratic system.

"It's a shame for the nation as Bangladesh is identified as a corrupt country by global organisations. Our heads hang in shame before the world due to such news (on corruption)," he said.

"Corruption is on the rise in Bangladesh due to shortcoming in its democratic system," the Jatiya Party chief observed.

GM Quader made the remarks while exchanging views with additional secretaries general of Jatiya Party at its chairperson's Banani office in the capital.

He said Jatiya Party has been doing politics to free Bangladesh from corruption.

"Our party is moving forward with its own politics. Jatiya Party will never bow down to fear or greed," GM Quader said.

Jatiya party secretary general Ziauddin Ahmed Bablu, former secretary general and opposition chief whip Moshiur Rahman Ranga and additional secretaries general were present at the meeting.
