A parliamentary sub-committee is to probe widespread allegations against Rajuk (Rajdhani Unnayan Katripakkha) in its different housing projects including Purbachal, Uttara and Rupnagar.The standing committee on housing and public works ministry yesterday came down heavily on Rajuk for its lack of transparency, recommending the ministry to bring structural changes in the Rajuk to make the organisation more dynamic and accountable. Ruling BNP lawmaker Alamgir Haider Khan will led the three-member sub-committee formed at a meeting of the standing committee at the Sangsad Bhaban and will submit report within 45 days. "At the backdrop of widespread allegations of corruption raised against Rajuk, especially in the implementation process of different housing presents, we wanted to probe it," Shahjahan Chowdhury, chairman of the parliamentary standing committee, told The Daily Star coming out of the meeting. "The meeting also observed there is no accountability and transparency in the Rajuk activities. The officials must be accountable for their deeds."
