Bangladeshi politicians
Many politicians say or pass many comments against their rival politicians which do not deserve answers. The educated and well-groomed politicians are cautious in making comments on national issues. Ours is a new democracy and our politicians are also new in politics, naturally all of them are not well groomed. Their background and entry into politics are mostly a picked-up process except those who entered through some political process and long struggles. Modification is underway and hopefully in the next decade there will be much qualitative changes in the behaviours of our politicians. Secondly, our politicians are tight-leaped because they are regulated by their party policies and have no freedom to express their opinions. In spite of all the restrictions and regulatory systems, we can see some dynamic politicians who speak wisely and cautiously saving their own dignity and acceptability. Especially, the top leaders of all political parties have some sense of individuality and that is why we expect changes in future political culture in Bangladesh.
So, the nation's expectation is positive. But one politician, at the moment, a Secretary General of a political party, I believe, has no sense of reality and does not mind to speak whatever he feels like. Recently, he said that the AL made a secret deal with India before 29 Dec election on Tipaimukh project. I am confirmed, he will not be able to produce any evidence in support of his claim.
Although it does not matter much, but it does really tarnish the image of his own party, other leaders and the most damaging thing is, it spreads discontentment between supporters of other parties. I don't know when good sense will prevail and his party will be saved from being ridiculed in public.
