All indicators upward, nothing to be disappointed: Finance Minister

Finance Minister Abul Hasan Mahmood Ali has said that all indicators of the country's economy are upward so there is nothing to be worried. 

The finance minister said this while talking to newsmen after chairing a session at the Ministry of Finance on the ongoing DC Conference held at the Osmani Memorial Auditorium in the capital on Monday.

The minister said, under the leadership of Sheikh Hasina, we have reached the highest point in the history of independent Bangladesh. The indicators of development that we have are increasing. Remittances for the month of February were 216 million dollars. 

He alleged that a vested quarter is spreading propaganda over the country's economy adding that BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir had already mentioned that he did not see any development in the country. 

Noting that Bangladesh has now reached its highest position since independence, he said that the country is now moving forward in line with the concerned plans and the Delta Plan 2100 framed by the Awami League government.
