“Rare gesture, late response,” published on January 25, 2015

BNP and Khaleda did the right thing; but they could have set an example by handling it in a much better fashion. This is BNP with its political mistakes all along.

Barkat
Politics is strange. Khaleda was almost in house arrest for the last so many days. In retaliation, she called nationwide blockade that caused so many deaths. If one Arafat's death makes Hasina so kind, then why doesn't Hasina meet Khaleda for the sake of 160 million people of Bangladesh? Let's hope, for the sake of millions of ordinary mothers, Hasina will go and meet Khaleda.

The snub was very much expected. Why ask for it when PM knew she would get one? A formal condolence letter would have been perfectly ok. I do not see anybody scoring any points with this untimely death of a person.

Couldn't the dirty politics and unnecessary drama to gain political milege be set aside for a little while, at least to let a mother privately grieve for her son?

Politicians try to do ugly politics with every issue.

“A good gesture by PM” (Jan. 26, 2015)

Tushar
Many citizens believe it's a political drama staged once again by the PM, previously by telephone calls and now by visiting the ex-PM's office. Citizens of this country don't forget how the former PM was dragged out of her home and very recently  barricaded by trucks and police.  

Barkat
If PM is saddened and concerned for one mother Khaleda, then why can't she go for political dialogue  to resolve the present crisis for the sake of millions of mothers?  
Thanks to Hasina, many senior BNP leaders are languishing in jail on ridiculous charges and also a large number of its decision makers are underground fearing  arrest. Hasina went there with pure and sole political intention and Khaleda played the game as well.
