Corruption and looting in the power sector Bangladesh may face a severe foreign exchange crisis after 2027 due to huge debt burden from 2027 onwards, made this comment at a BNP press briefing while presenting a presentation on corruption in the power sector.
At this time, BNP Standing Committee member Iqbal Hasan Mahmud Tuku said that the Awami League has ruined the people of the country by performing magic in the power sector. "There will be a severe foreign exchange crisis in the country from 2027 onwards. The main reason for this is electricity."
The former state minister for power and energy said corruption and looting in this sector will lead to a severe foreign exchange crisis in the country from 2027.
He made these remarks at a press conference at the party chairperson's office in Gulshan, the capital, on Thursday morning.
BNP Standing Committee member Iqbal Hasan Mahmud Tuku presented a written statement on this issue.
Saying that the Awami League created an artificial crisis in electricity and energy to indulge in corruption and loot, he said: "The Awami League has looted Tk1 lakh crore just in the name of capacity charges. They had turned the electricity sector into a business sector. They understood that 'quick money' could be made from this sector without any accounting."
At the press conference, BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir said that if the BNP comes to power, it will review all sectors including power and energy and take necessary steps.
He said, the words of corruption, theft and looting by the Awami League are being dropped in political debates. If these words are not said, people will forget the corruption of the Awami League and the country they have destroyed.
He said: "Awami League has emptied the country. If we don't highlight these things, people will forget. We need to say these things again and again. The Awami League has committed the most corruption in the electricity sector."

In addition to BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir and the party's standing committee member Nazrul Islam Khan was present.
