The country is now on the highway of development due to the visionary leadership of the present government.
When the remaining ongoing development work is once implemented, the country’s economic landscape will be changed.
Bangladesh has become a role model in the world as revolutionary development has taken place in the last one era.
Yet, so many things remain to be done, and in the continuation of development, the country will become a developed country before 2041.

Referring to various development projects, the state minister said, “People of the country have witnessed unimaginable development in the last one decade. The dream Padma Bridge connecting South Bengal is now a reality, every highway in the country is developed like in Europe.
Various mega projects including Metrorail, Karnaphuli Tunnel and others are expected to change the economic landscape of the country”.
According to the government’s election promise, the government is working to ensure electricity, communication infrastructure and quality of education in every village like in the city.
“As a result of the development activities of the present government, the wheel of the country's economy is still moving in the midst of various disasters. If this continuity is maintained, Bangladesh will become a developed and prosperous country ahead of schedule,” the state minister said.
