Construction work on a road in the border area of Chapainawabganj was inaugurated twice on the same day, sparking severe criticism. On November 1, current MP and Dhaka South Jamaat Ameer Nurul Islam Bulbul inaugurated the road in the morning, while former BNP MP and district council administrator Harunur Rashid inaugurated it again in the afternoon.
Locals reported that this back-to-back inauguration stemmed from political rivalry. The LGED stated that construction began about two weeks ago, and neither of the events held by the current and former MPs was an official inauguration.
Both sides engaged in mutual criticism during the events. MP Nurul Islam Bulbul stated he wants to work together for district development, but the public has not given anyone else the authority to inaugurate work done by him. Meanwhile, former MP Harunur Rashid claimed he brought the project allocation, giving him the right to inspect or inaugurate it as a former lawmaker and district council administrator.
