No question paper leaks if govt wants: Raushan

Official opposition leader in parliament Raushon Ershad on Wednesday said the practice of frequent question paper leakage can be stopped right away if the government wants to do so.

"If the government wants, it can be done. There's nothing the government cannot do. Why isn't the government doing it?” Raushon said in her speech at house on the closing day of the session of parliament.

The senior co-chairperson of Jatiya Party, which is also a key component of the Awami League-led government, wondered why the question paper is leaked so frequently. "When will this come to an end?"

Raushan Ershad said, “What will be the education minister's answer if he is asked this question (why is it not coming to an end)?"

She feels that those who are involved in preparing question papers are leaking those.

"Our meritorious students are getting into trouble due to this ...the education system is lagging behind," the JaPa leader told the house.

She, however, mentioned that the present government has been more successful compared to the ones in the past.

"In the past, no parliament had been able to complete its tenure peacefully...this government didn't face any hartal, siege and movement," she said.

Raushan added that the development works carried out under the current government was never seen during other previous governments.
