Coming down heavily on TIB report, Information and Broadcasting Minister and Awami League Joint General Secretary Dr Hasan Mahmud on Wednesday (27 December) said the report is conflicting, motivated and there is no scope to mislead the people with this report.

Hasan said, according to TIB report the number of millionaires Awami League and independent candidates in the forthcoming election is higher than the previous elections. But the comparison is illogical as the costs of land both in urban and rural areas increased multiply over the years.

“The price of one katha land in rural area is about Taka 20 lakh and five katha land is Taka one crore. There is no land less than Taka one crore in Dhaka and Chattogram cities. So, there is no scope to mislead the countrymen by giving such report,” he said.

The minister said this while replying to a query of reporters at his office at secretariat here.

Recalling the propaganda of TIB on so-called corruption in the Padma Bridge project the minister said all the statements of TIB on that issue later proved false as no corruption was found in the project.

Dr Hasan said the TIB claimed that all their reports are based on researches. But later it was seen that their so-called research papers were delivered with a motive to embarrass the government.
