Ruling party MP Mohammad Shahjahan asked Water Resources Minister Abdur Raz-zak in the House yesterday whether (he Ganges waters, flowing into Bangladesh following the recently signed water-treaty with India, could be used for’Oju' (ablution).
While raising the question, the AL lawmaker quoted a BNP member who earlier claimed in the House that the Ganges water could not be used for 'Oju'.
In reply, the minister said. " . . . like water of any other river, the Ganges water can also be used- for Oju' and even for a bath."
Amid laughter in the Treasury Bench, the minister added. "1 also made it clear that the Ganges water did not contain anything harmful, as claimed by the BNP."
While speaking on a bill. BNP legislator Abdul Mannan recited from poems of National Poet Kazi Nazrul Islam.
Interrupting him. the Speaker commented. 'Yes. we've also learnt about such poems.” But he added in a lighter vein. 'Were the poet alive, he would probably demand the right to Interrupted by Mashiur Rahman of BNP. Speaker Humayun Rashid Choudhury smilingly said. "I'm now on my journey to the legislative business. Why are you pulling me back." The Speaker's remark apparently satisfied the Opposition MP who sat down with a smile.
The Speaker also succeeded in taming another BNP member. attempting to interrupt the Speaker while he was in a hurry to complete the day's business. Taking a quick look at the member, the Speaker said 'The train is running fast. Let me go with it."
The House witnessed several voice-votes at the fag end of yesterday's five-hour sitting, with the Iftar time approaching, the Yes' and No' voices became lower.
Once, the 'No' voice of the Opposition Bench was heard stronger than the "Yes' voice of the Treasury Bench.
A smiling Speaker, however, announced Victory' of the Treasury Bench members, outnumbering their Opposition colleagues.
When some Opposition members jokingly claimed to have won the voice-vote, the Speaker urged both the benches to raise 'Yes' and 'No' voices together strongly. Both the benches then raised full-throated voices of 'Yes' and 'No.' causing laughter in the wiry House.
Prof Shahidul Islam of BNP asked Education Minister ASHK Sadeq whether the gov-
ernmeftt made the recent contract basis appointments of some secretaries considering theit laces or jiarty interest.
"It's neither faces nor the partisan interests", replied the minister. The appointments were made purely on the basis of merit, qualification and public interest he said but commented. "Raising such a question gives the impression that such appointments were made considering faces and partisan interests by the past government."
At this stage, another BNP member. Abdul Wahab, smilingly told the Chair, "Give me the floor considering my face,"
However, the Chair did not entertain the Opposition mem-lier's request.
