Bangladesh to introduce plot system for industrial lands

Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina stated that the government has decided to introduce plot system for industrial lands doing away with the system of selling plots on the basis of tender. She was addressing the media during her visit to the Industries Ministry on 24 August.

The PM stated: “Previously, the large industrial lands were being sold at very low price because of tender. People were submitting tenders for the sake of submitting it.”

Hasina believes that more textile centres will be established in the area which has a good number of textile factories.
