People deserve to know state reform timeline: Tarique Rahman

Stressing the importance of quick completion of state reforms, BNP Acting Chairman Tarique Rahman on Sunday said that people have the right to know the intention of the current interim government about it, including the timeline and duration required for the reforms.

“People have the right to know what the current interim government intends to do and how many months or time they need to reform the state,” he said while virtually addressing a discussion, reports UNB.

The BNP leader said that if the government announces its future action plan and roadmap, it would ensure transparency on one hand and accountability to the people on the other, and it would boost the pace of the administration's activities.

He, however, said if the advisers' expressions reveal signs of unease after hearing the interim government's roadmap, it would certainly go against the aspirations of the people. "The more transparent the government is with people through its activities, the more support people will extend to it," Tarique mentioned.

BNP organised the discussion at the Institution of Engineers, Bangladesh, to mark Great Victory Day.
