Adviser to the Ministry of Road Transport and Bridges, Muhammad Fawzul Kabir Khan has asked to provide information if anyone in the road department is involved in extortion. He said, we will take action immediately.
He said this while talking to reporters at the secretariat on Sunday (August 18) in response to a question.
The issue of extortion in the road transport sector has been a longstanding problem. After the change of government, another party is now taking subscription. People have changed but extortion continues; When reporters drew attention to this, he said, "It is actually a question for the Home Affairs Advisor." Because extortion is a law and order issue. It would be better to ask him.'
In addition to the police, there are subscriptions, related people who manage - when the journalists told this information, the advisor said, road transport is a regulatory ministry. Run a bus, issue a bus license or issue a driver's license. But the contribution that employees take or pay is a matter of law and order. Because they are not supposed to take it.
"But if you think that there is involvement of the road department or any officer or employee of this department, tell us and we will take action immediately."
