“River up for grabbing?” published on May 19, 2014

S. M. Iftakhar Rosul(Faisal)
Wow! Half of the river occupied by the UNO and the MP. How did these two powerful bosses do it?

Somewhere these greedy people heard the lecture to “dream big” and they are now after it. I am wondering whether there are no ponds to grab or they just became so insatiate that those small ponds no longer quench their thirst. Whatever might be the reason, they feel that they can digest it.

Please take the land issues outside the job description of administrative services. One of the main reasons for messy situation in Bangladesh is unnecessary job load and associated power bestowed upon some officers. This is a very good example of such undue power.

“With neighbours, more assertive?” (May 18, 2014)

Mortuza Huq
I believe despite all pre-election rhetoric, BJP will be prudent in its foreign relations, especially with the neighbours.

Why bother so much about this communal fellow and his policy? If he plays the dirty role he preached in his election campaign, he will destroy India. Better not to give him too much importance.

“Ex-CEC Huda summoned” (May 19, 2014)

Molla A. Latif
Freedom of expression allowed him to speak unhindered. Now the organisations against whom he spoke should have also the freedom to ask for an explanation on what he said.

Hardreality
When no politicians from the sitting government get punishment no matter how serious their alleged crime is, it hardly raises question. When an illegal building like BGMEA is still standing despite court order to demolish the building, the question of these politicians' competency does not arise. When Hazaribagh tannery owners defy court order again and again to relocate their factory, it doesn't matter. But when someone speaks the truth, it's like waging a war against them. They should take the constructive criticism seriously and face it, instead of being jerk.
