Here are some comments that came in response to Sunday's The Daily Star news report headlined “MKA replaces Shahara” Faiz ahmed
It is too late to replace Shahara. Tausif
I think MK Alamgir will make a much better home minister than his predecessor. Abul
Mohiuddin Khan Alamgir is not the right choice for home ministry. Elihan, UK
We think the outcome will be zero except adding more expenses to the public exchequer by creating more ministries. There is absolutely nothing to hope for the poor nation. Faiz Ahmed
It is wise to replace Shahara but we have to wait and see whether the decision is right or wrong. Saleh Md. Shahriar
We welcome the new home minister. We hope he will leave no stone unturned to improve the law and order situation. Mayen Uddin Tazim
Thanks to the prime minister for reshuffling the cabinet, especially the home ministry although it is too late. MKA was an experienced civil servant. I think he is absolutely the right person for this position. Translucent
A reshuffle was long overdue. However, finance and industries ministers could have been replaced for stronger performers. Mostafa Faruque Mohammad and Abul Hassan Mahmood Ali come from the same stables and let's hope their performance is not the same too. Perhaps MKA could have been given the finance but I am sure he will do well in home ministry. Good luck! A reader
Regarding Sagar-Runi killing, Sahara Khatun said within three days the murderers would be identified. But still now the law enforcing agencies could not detect the culprits. We expect the new home minister will do a real investigation into the case and give proper punishment to the criminals. A citizen
The reshuffle is yet to be complete. We are disappointed because no change has been made in the finance ministry, the most controversial ministry of the ruling government because of share market scam, Padma bridge loan cancellation, Sonali Bank scam, inflation and so on. Despite many controversies, again Sahara Khatun has been awarded the posts and telecommunication ministry, from where Rajiuddin Ahmed Razu has been removed. But why Razu is removed is not clear to us. However, we congratulate MK Alamgir, Hasanul Haq Inu and other newly appointed ministers. We want good service from them within this short period of time before the next election.
