We are on the same side
The recent criticism by the government high ups against Prof. Yunus's Nobel achievement reminds me of the Hindi serials. The stories are mainly based on quarrel among family members. Actually, this is the true reflection of our people's mentality. If we look back to our history, we will see that the people always created obstacle in the way of our great achievements. The British knew it very well that if they could break our unity, they could easily establish their rule in this subcontinent. Creating dispute centring personal interests was a technique of the British to divide our nation. The British left our country many years ago. But still we can not come out of this mentality. There are some achievements that the country will remember forever. Prof. Yunus' winning the Nobel peace prize is one of those. We the Bangladeshis should not say anything against him because we are on the same side. We should remember that one can not hide obe's failures by criticising others.
