Yunus loses plea, seeks review
SC hears his petition today (April 6, 2011)
It's the beginning of the end of Grameen Bank. With the grip of the present government, Grameen Bank will eventually face the same fate as lots of nationalised big industries after the liberation of Bangladesh. History will repeat itself.
Mostafa Is there any legal age for the retirement of politicians?
Zaber e hope personalities like Prof Yunus would help the rules of games be established in every walk of life! If we need to change any rules for betterment we should have done that before the game started, not in the MIDDLE of the game and/or at the END of the game!
Saleh-Rahim Ahmed Dr. Yunus was removed to restore law and order in the country (although according to Dr. Kamal Hossain Bangladesh Bank cannot remove Dr. Yunus in this way because Grameen Bank is not a nationalised bank).
Annonymous We don't know the future of Grameen Bank but we can surely say if Nobel laureate Prof Muhammad Yunus is really removed from his position of Managing Director, then this bank has to pay a lot in the forthcoming days.
Eng. Md. Mehebub Haque There is no reason to assume that the people who are expressing slightly different views on the merit of the case of Prof Yunus are out to tarnish the image, prestige and honor of the Nobel laureate; we also want him to live in peace and dignity. We feel embarrassed to see that the legal proceedings are being prejudiced from various quarters. My question is whether Prof Yunus believes in a respectable compromise or looking for victory and glorious comeback as MD of the GB. The judiciary has to deal with facts and figures and acceptable evidences.
Faqrul It is very difficult to understand why a dignified personality of his status failed to understand the possible outcome of the case he had filed with the court against a government decision where. Enough has been done--now it would be better for Dr. Yunus to shelve the matter.
Abul Kashem Before issuing any termination, dismissal or discharge order a 'show cause' is supposed to be served. This is a mandatory provision of law. In his case no such notice was served.
Kabir Ahmad End of highly regarded organisation. No foreign company will come forward to invest in Bangladesh as we have corrupted political systems.
