National Citizen Party (NCP) Spokesperson Asif Mahmud Shojib Bhuyain today criticised the remarks by Cumilla Zilla Parishad administrator and said the money spent in different upazilas of Cumilla was mostly given as special allocation from the Local Government Division when he was in charge of the ministry as an adviser of the interim government.

“More than 90 percent of the money spent in different upazilas of Cumilla came as special allocation from the Local Government Division,” he said after visiting the fire-ravaged slum in Dhaka’s Kalshi this afternoon.

Yesterday, Cumilla Zilla Parishad Administrator Md Mostak Mia alleged that under the name of “coordinators”, Asif took Tk 15 crore to Muradnagar upazila and Hasnat Abdullah (NCP MP) took Tk 10 crore to Debidwar from the Cumilla Zilla Parishad during the tenure of the interim government

Asif said special allocation and revenue funds are not the same.

“If they confuse special allocation with revenue funds, then they have no qualification to sit in such positions,” he said.

“At first, he [Mostak] said the money was taken. Later, when Hasnat Abdullah called him, he said he did not mean it was taken personally, but that allocations were given,” Asif said.

Commenting on Kalshi slum fire, Asif called for a proper investigation, alleging that the incident may not have been accidental.

“The authorities must ensure rehabilitation and compensation for the affected residents before taking any further step regarding the land,” he said.

“If the residents are evicted from this place without rehabilitation, we will consider it a political takeover,” he added.​
