Truth Teller
Thanks to Justice Bazlur Rahman for setting the example. I hope other officials of Bangladesh government will follow his example. Roald
This type of incident is unheard of nowadays. Md. Forhad Hossain Bappy
We feel proud to have someone like him as our judge and we hope that our political leaders will follow this example. Mohsin
The honourable judge set an example that may encourage top officials to save money for this poor nation. Rch
Thanks to Justice Bazlur Rahman. He made his point clear -- hats off to him and shame on others who could not stick to their moral high ground. Ahmed
Hope fellow judges will learn how to get respect from others. in particular the judge who a few months back had forced Biman management to upgrade his ticket causing delay and sufferings to other passengers. Later, he also summoned Biman officials including the captain of that flight. An observer
I thank the judge for his goodness. Why do the press not follow-up the case of other judge and tell public the ordeal the pilot and the flight had to undergo for not upgrading an economy class ticket to business class? Jumana Sarwar
I fly across the Atlantic on business trip on regular basis and our company's protocol provides me business class and I happily enjoy this. But I could not imagine on a private trip I would or could threat any official to upgrade my ticket from economy to business class. The judge has followed the protocol. N. Alamgir
Hats off to Justice Bazlur Rahman. Such integrity is rare in Bangladesh. I am sure he has set an example among all Bangladeshis who look for and demand privileges which they are not entitled to. I am sure if Bangladesh had more such persons, the country's fate would have been quite different. Kishwar Khan
I salute Justice Bazlur Rahman for his exemplary stand which should actually be a normal affair. Hope this will be a lesson for others to follow. Mong Ching
Justice Bazlur Rahman is an exception to the corrupt people's representatives who run the country not by rule, but by their 'illegitimate' political clout. I salute him. Anonymous
With our confidence gradually going down on the legal system, especially the court, this incident gives some ray of hope! My heartiest felicitations to the honourable Justice Rahman for his exemplary deed.
