BNP’s policy

Solaiman Palash, East Jurain, Dhaka
The BNP’s stand against India’s proposal of sending security personnel to guard their high commission is quite intriguing. It’s also self-contradictory, because they never question the presence of US marine corps at the US Embassy. If they allow the marines why create a fuss about the Indians? It’s their old trick to gain public support by opposing India. But gone are those days. Now we the public are well informed. So, it’s not easy to gain any political advantage through such tactics. If they want to gain more public support they must change their mindset. They must abandon the company of war criminals and religious zealots. They must oust the corrupt leaders who destroyed the reputation of both the country and the party. They must remember that it is 21st century and there’s no place for narrow politics.
