MPs and duty free cars
Congratulations to the newly elected MPs. There will be a total of three hundred and 45 MPs, including the selected women MPs. Now if each MP avails the tax free car facility for Tk. 2 crore BMW then with the 200% duty waiver the total amount will be Tk. 1,380 crore. Moreover, many of the cars will be used by unnamed friends and business partners of the MPs.
So, I would urge the newly elected government to reasonably limit the duty free amount for cars to be used by MPs.
