LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Nur Jahan, Chittagong
From the August 27, 2013 issue of TDS, we learned that JP Chairman Ershad demanded that the government should give magistracy power to army personnel and appoint them to root out illegal drug trades including Yaba and Phensidyl from the country. This is to save the youths. We heartily thank him for this wise and timely advice. We also believe that only army can remove this evil from society.
