Uneasy wait for 2015

Uneasy wait for 2015

Nur Jahan, Chittagong

We are on the doorstep of a new year but instead of being optimistic we are feeling very uneasy because we can easily picture what is waiting for us in the year 2015. The past two years were turbulent: people had been demonstrating for a neutral government to hold the general election in the year 2013, and 2014 started with the formation of a government that did not have people's mandate. And this government is determined to hold on to power at any cost. May the Almighty Allah save us from further sufferings and let us live in peace and happiness.
