Please do something for the country
Some political leaders in our country, either in power or in opposition, cry for the well-being of the common people. Are they really crying for the people? Or they are just trying to protect their ill-gotten wealth? Some of the leaders are seen shouting in the meetings and processions ostensibly to protect the interest of the common people. Though we know them very well what they are really up to, we cannot say anything about this. In the daily newspapers, we read many reports on grabbing of the rivers and government khas land by the MPs and the influential political leaders of both the ruling and the opposition parties. But we do not see any action taken against them. Such a report was published in The Daily Star on 5th October 2011. It said that one Awami league lawmaker was filling khas land ands a part of the Buriganga river for setting up a power plant and an amusement park.
So, I request our political leaders to do something good for the country. People will remember them even after their death if they do something good.
