It is unfortunate to make false publicity while bringing corrupts into legal ambit, he added. 


Even the employees of Commission for Investigation of Abuse of Authority (CIAA) were also not spared on their wrongdoings, he said, asking the public not to harbour any doubt on actions against the corrupt. 


On another note, he said this year is the time for laying foundation stone and next year will be for the inauguration since big projects on the road, bridge and railways have already begun. 

"We would only accept people's evaluation after four years", he asserted.
