The political system of Bangladesh is going back to squire no 1 that is division, non co-operation, mudslinging, vindictive and yes…Hartal. What people envisioned after the election of 2008 is almost gone and the political retribution is coming back with brute force. The killing of political leaders, contract snatching by ruling Awami League party, Campus violence, corruption, mugging and hijacking are turning out to be the day to day affairs of Bangladesh. No matter which political party comes to power in Bangladesh, they tend to get to back to the same principal of violence. The naming of Zia International Airport and subsequent admission by the Prime Minister of Bangladesh needs to merit. During the BNP rule the name changing game was widespread everywhere.
So far, during the last 15 years or more, these two ladies ruled the country with iron fist and had no substitute for their positions. May be that’s why the country could not proceed as expected. The Parliament system of Bangladesh is not working. There is no scope for new leaders to come out and the same old back biting leaders are coming to power year after year. To fix the problem the country need to fix the fundamental problem that is the Parliament system of governance. The AL went ahead with Parliament system because India had it and they wanted to mimic their success. However to their dismay and peoples, the system is not working. The change that was expected is not going to come from these two leaders. Their thinking, ideas are stagnant and the country needs new blood with new ideas. There needs to be a new revolution in the country that will be based on Patriotism, principals of democracy, tolerance, for the people, by the people, and economic need. The whole world is going ahead in two steps and Bangladesh is still leaping from its wounds inflicted by these so called leaders.
