Huda denies Padma bridge blame


Dhaka, Oct 20 — A former communications minister has denied the allegations of corruption in the Padma Bridge project brought by the prime minister.

"The prime minister has lied about me regarding the Padma bridge project," BNP's Nazmul Huda told the press at an emergency meet on Thursday.

"The World Bank committed to the large loan for Padma Bridge because of the four-party alliance (led by BNP) government's success with Mahakhali flyover, DUTP (Dhaka Urban Transport Project) and other projects," he said.

Prime minister Sheikh Hasina at a rally on Wednesday said that corruption in the communications ministry during the last BNP government led to the suspension of funds.
