Dear new generation
Do you remember the explosion in the Tengratila gas field? The Tengratila gas field exploded during the government of the BNP-Jamaat coalition government. The then ruling party was immersed in anti-national activities and corruption. Later, a case was filed against Nike, a multinational gas company.
The fire was extinguished at an altitude of 200-300 feet in a gas eruption, and after burning thousands of cubic feet of gas for over a month, the fire was extinguished at one point. Billions of rupees of state resources were lost, as were settlements, settlements, educational institutions, lives and property of people from various villages, including the surrounding Tengratila.
The entire area faces a serious environmental disaster. The then Khaleda-Nizami government caused a loss of approximately Rs 13.07 million to the state by ‘handing over’ three gas fields to the Canadian company Nike by abusing its power.
After 15 long years, the International Court of Arbitration for Investment Dispute Settlement (ICID) in London, UK, finally ruled against Niko. Bangladesh was ordered to pay compensation of Rs 8,000 crore. The Awami League in the opposition led by Sheikh Hasina was vocal on the streets with the people against the negligence and corruption of the BNP government in the gas explosion. Although he was imprisoned in the government of the BNP-Jamaat alliance at the time, the Bangladesh Awami League delegation led by the then Deputy Leader of the Opposition (now President), Lawyer Abdul Hamid, was alongside the people of Chhatak Doara Bazaar. I have tried to side with people in endangered areas by keeping in touch with leaders and workers in various ways, including from the blind cell in prison.
Local and central leaders of the Bangladesh Awami League have continued their fight to uncover the situation after the explosion and seek justice and compensation for those involved. Patriotic political parties, as well as various social organizations and conscientious people from all classes and professions, openly expressed their demand for justice and compensation.
After the formation of the government, we have continued the uncompromising legal battle to protect the interests of the country. The verdict is in favor of the country today.
In addition to Khaleda Zia, other defendants in the case include BNP standing committee member Moudud Ahmed, former state minister for energy AKM Mosharraf Hossain, then chief secretary to prime minister Kamal Uddin Siddiqui and former acting secretary to the ministry of energy and mineral resources Khandaker Shahidul Islam. , Former senior undersecretary CM Yusuf Hossain, Bapex’s So. Former general manager Mir Moinul Haque, former Bapex secretary. Shafiur Rahman, Gias Uddin Al Mamun, a close friend of Tariq Rahman, businessman MAH Selim, a former deputy from Bagerhat, and Kashem Sharif, Niko’s vice president for South Asia.
Guarantee your immediate judgment. Furthermore, we demand justice for those who were involved in the corruption scandal locally, those who ate potatoes in this fire, to be included in the case.
