Ban on hartal

Md. Mosharaf Hossain, On e-mail

When a political party assumes power, it calls the opposition party troublemaker, and asks them not to observe hartal. The situation reverses when the opposition party comes to power again. This is our political culture. The politicians reap the benefits in such a culture. Politicians never think of the well-being of the country and the welfare of the common man. The grand alliance government has come to power with an absolute majority. It is the best time for them to ban hartal forever, so that their commitment, with the slogan "Din Bodoler pala," to the nation is fulfilled. We, the common people, have no interest in hartal, whether it is called by the BNP or the Awami League.
