These are not news to Bangladeshis. We want solution. The question is: Will Sheikh Hasina and her collegues pay any heed to such surveys?

Certainly Bangladesh is heading towards wrong direction with full responsibility of its majority population. They forgot how to kick out a dictator after they did in 1990 last.

The government will nullify the survey stating that it was influenced by external forces or just ignore it as background noise. There will be no next election as they know the public has had enough with them. With the majority in parliament, they can make up some other rule to win the election or ban the opposition. The only thing that is in favour of the current government is that the opposition has been weak and equally ignorant and arrogant with the hartals and movements harming the public.

Any opinion poll that goes against the satisfaction of our 'popular' government leaders will get least importance and attention as long as we are surrounded by our well-wisher patrons who are believed to have assured our ruling party not to be concerned about others' opinions.

Very interesting but not surprising at all in most cases. More than 75% wanting restoration of the caretaker government system is inevitable! Now let's wait to see what the AL and other political parties have got to say about the report.

Thanks for covering this survey. Most of the findings are reasonable. Only striking piece of result is “48 percent people said the Election Commission was completely impartial.” I wonder how the questionnaire was designed. We still remember the IT caricature of election commission with the asset statements of candidates. And the involvement of money or gifts for casting votes or not casting votes is a question of less importance as it was not a competitive election.

Majority (52%) didn't support BNP in boycotting the polls while 40% supported it, 77% think caretaker government should be brought back, Majority (48%) think election commission was completely impartial, fair and independent while 42% disagreed.......So, you can see that this survey did not find anything convincing except that the people are confused.

Thanks for reporting the obvious. Bangladeshis are not naive in politics, at least. I don't think anyone except for Sheikh Hasina and a few of her misguided followers believe that Bangladesh is heading in the right direction. Even, I believe, majority of Awami Leaguers don't believe in their heart that what's happening in Bangladesh is right and want to see an urgent change. This is extremely to the nationalistic people with unshaken morality across the political spectrum. The sooner it happens, the better for all.
