The prime minister had the courage to build Padma Bridge on public funds of Bangladesh because of your (the people's) courage. No loan had to be taken from anyone. The economic graph of Bangladesh has changed. Bangladesh has become a development role model around the world. Everything has become possible because of Sheikh Hasina's leadership. Bangladesh will be known as a developed country around the world by 2041.
