It was not like Obaidul Quader

I have a special respect for Communications Minister Obaidul Quader, a soft-spoken person. He speaks logically on different issues, which is praiseworthy.
But recently I have become disappointed at his comments on a few subjects. His remark about the opposition political party's not participating in the general election is not acceptable. He said that, “the opposition has missed the train.” But ignoring the demand of 90% people for a CTG, the government went ahead with its agenda, so we think the train was derailed and there was no scope for the opposition to board it.
Then his comments on the violence at Rajshahi University, where 100 students were injured and 20 of them were hit by bullets as the police and the activists of BCL swooped on the students, were also unacceptable. Obaidul Quader has blamed the violence on criminals who infiltrated into the ranks of BCL. We did not expect this sort of unreasonable comments from him.
