No atmosphere for left politics
Says Dilip Barua
Industries Minister and General Secretary of Bangladesh Samyabadi Dal Dilip Barua yesterday said there is no favourable environment for practising left leaning politics at this moment in the country.
He said this at a view exchange meeting with the journalists organised by Bangladesh Samyabadi Dal at a city restaurant.
He said there are only two political powers in the country. One is the progressive and anti-communal force, which believes in the spirit of the 1971 War of Liberation, led by Sheikh Hasina. Another is the reactionary force which does not believe in the liberation war.
"We have no alternative but to win against the anti-liberation forces through completing the war crimes trial and for this reason every force which believes in the liberation war should be united,” he said.
He arranged the meeting against the backdrop of a meeting held by the ruling AL led 14-party grand alliance on Thursday where Samyabadi Dal leaders were absent.
