BNP upset over Padma Bridge completion

BNP activists are utterly upset as the long-cherished Padma Bridge project has been completed, Law Minister Anisul Huq said yesterday.

He was answering queries from journalists after visiting the under-construction Ashrayan Project at Rajapur village under Akhaura upazila of Brahmanbaria, reports our local correspondent. "Leaders and activists of BNP are habituated to spreading propaganda...  They don't want something beneficial for people to be implemented," he said.

"Their (BNP) hearts burn as people's dream has come true under the leadership of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. For this reason, they are spreading propaganda about Padma Bridge," he said.
