Power generation

Md. Delwar Hossain, East Rampura,Dhaka
Bibiyana 450mw power project was planned considering the availability of gas in Bibiyana gas field. It is an IPP project. But it is in the process of tendering and re-tendering during the last couple of years. It should move in the fast track to start construction without any further loss of time. For construction of power stations the tendering process is so complicated and cumbersome that complaints, counter-complaints and transparency question make it unduly lengthy. The tendering process for power station work should be straightened and the matter decided by a high-powered committee.
