Pendulum of our politics
Gazipur election once again clearly proved that the pendulum of our politics swings with a five years' time period. But the irony is that the poor voters vote for opposition not because they are happy with their activities but because they get frustrated and feel betrayed by the activities of the ruling party.
People in 2008 voted AL to power, but they did not keep the promise they made to the people. Instead, AL used its power to show arrogance and take revenge and so did the BNP while in power during 2001-2006. I am sure if BNP is voted to power next time, it will do exactly the same and hence the pendulum will continue to swing predictably. We can see the body language of BNP that they are getting ready.
