Nahid accuses media of publishing ‘partial comment’ on bribery

Education minister Nurul Islam Nahid on Wednesday accused the media of publishing his comment on bribery partially triggering misunderstanding among the masses.

The minister at a news conference at the ministry said his comment was narration of the situation prevailing at the Directorate of Inspection and Audit eight years ago when he had to tell the officials something like ‘take bribe, but keep it tolerable’.

Nahid claimed forcing teachers and officials to bribe is a result of BNP-Jamaat rule. And now the directorate is almost transparent and accountable, he said.
