Following the inspection, Awami League lawmaker AKM Bahauddin Bahar, who is believed to have close ties with firms, called Koli over phone on Wednesday, asking why she prepared the report without consulting him. After the DoE official said she had written about the RHD in the assessment report, the MP rejected her claim, saying: “I have the report right now, in which you mentioned 114,333 cubic feet of hill was cut. How did you measure this, without me?”Furious, he kept asking the DoE official how she measured the damage. As the DoE official tried to explain herself, the MP called her “nonsense.”“You don’t even know what to do and how. Admitting that he had called DoE official “nonsense,” he said he had shouted at her because he did not like irregularities.
