No hartal please
Hartal is considered as a democratic way for achieving any right putting a government in pressure, and there was considerable success in the past. Nowadays the environment is totally different; open negotiation is possible to settle an issue and because of the strong stand of media there is no reason to fear any unfair play. Every party in opposition always calls hartal. Did they ever take into account the sentiment of masses about hartal? Did any party count the losses caused by hartals? We request our leaders to go to the parliament and solve the issues through dialogue.
Frequently we see political activists vandalize or burn vehicles on the previous night of hartal and do violent activities during hartal. Dear politicians, please bear in mind that violence can't be the way for settling any issue. So, no hartal please.
