Tipaimukh and Saarc
We are watching many movements, discussions and campaigns to protest the Tipaimukh dam. Tipaimukh dam is threatening our country but our govt. is not working on it at all. We are a member of Saarc and Saarc began its journey from Bangladesh. So, the responsibility to make Saarc effective comes to us first. Why did we build Saarc? Was it built for entertaining the ministers, prime ministers or presidents of these eight member countries? Every year we see there is a summit, and all the guardians from the member countries meet at a place, discuss some issues, give superb speeches and finally enjoy some cultural and entertainment programmes arranged by the host country. Is that all for which it was built, entertaining our state representatives? If problems like Tipaimukh cannot be solved through Saarc, then it is useless. So my request to the authorities, please do something now.
Make Saarc effective and solve sub-continental issues through it.
