Budget Discussion in JS: AL allies rap govt for banking mess

Several MPs of ruling grand alliance yesterday slammed the government for corruption in the banking sector and said Bangladesh Bank had failed to supervise the banks. During a general discussion at parliament on the proposed budget for 2019-20, Workers Party lawmaker Rashed Khan Menon said good governance would not be ensured if the corruption in banks persisted. “They [Bangladesh Bank] could not manage their own money. People of the country did not find any accountability in their part,” he said.
