Those who don’t see development need to check eyesight: PM

Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina on Sunday ridiculed the critics for their failure to see democracy and development in the country.

“I think those who don’t see the development need to check their eyesight,” she said referring to BNP leaders and critics of her government.

The prime minister was addressing a discussion on the occasion of the Independence and National Day-2022, joining it virtually from her official residence Ganabhaban in Dhaka.

Bangladesh Awami League organised the discussion at its central office in the city’s Bangabandhu Avenue.

AL president Hasina, who chaired the discussion, said the critics don’t see the government’s successes in bringing the cent per cent area of the country under electricity coverage, making the country as Digital Bangladesh, construction of Padma Bridge, Metrorail, Karnaphuli tunnel and Rooppur Nuclear Power Plant.

Noting that BNP leaders often allege that there is no democracy in the country, she said it is very unfortunate for the nation that it would have to learn democracy from a party that had been founded inside the cantonment by an illegal power grabber Ziaur Rahman.

“They’re saying that democracy has been destroyed. What is their definition of democracy? she asked. “They are now giving lessons about democracy. It’s very unfortunate for the nation.”
