Finally some organization with repute recommended the changing of Article 70 of  Bangladesh constitution. The Transparency International Bangladesh while organizing a discussion titled ” Parliament Watch 2009″ at Dhaka expressed the said feelings. Even the ruling Awami League lawmakers Mohiuddin Khan Alamgir and Saber Hossain Chowdhury supported the view. Al and BNP in order to rein in their own party MPs constructed this rule so that no one can express any view without their party authorization. It also binds the hand of the MP’s in only supporting thier own Prime minister and not being capable of challenging him or her.

Its a disgrace that the BNP and AL is treating their own parliamentarians in this way. Both these parties does not want real democracy except controlling the government and its apparatus let alone giving freedom to their own party MPs.  If the current administration is sure enough to give positive change to Bangladesh then they should go and change this Article 70 of the constitution and bring real change to the culture of parliamentarians. The people will support them and will be loved for a change that is of absolute necessary for this country and its people.
