Commentary: We must secure our people’s salvation through democracy
– Mainul Hosein :
Masterminds of mafia kind of celebration of plundering is not politics or political leadership.
The country is in seize of a few master mafia minds. Let them be handled to resist violence and gangsterism of looting public money.
There has been no politics but easy way of plundering and looting public money.
Whether holding the election will be possible or not the desperados have to show solidarity with the government because any change will have disastrous consequence of people’s fury.
The people will have to earn salvation.
That means through upsurge of unguided violent confrontation if unavoidable.
Our educated thinkers are immersed so deep in shallow waters that they can only say, more often than not, that political instability causes economic uncertainty.
But they will not say how to organise political stability.
Sycophancy among our educated ones has not helped us to get responsible leadership.
Praising for right reason is welcome. A responsible leader shuns sycophancy meticulously so that he is not be led along the wrong path.
I wonder how our democratic Constitution has been kept in abeyance to run a mafia type despotism.
The independence of the judiciary was denied but even the judges also did not find any conflict of conscience.
Bangabandhu has been accepted as the father of the nation for liberating Bangladesh.
Despite the fact he was absent and he accepted the six-point autonomy within the framework of undivided Pakistan.
There is no shred of evidence to support Bangabandhu declared independence either for East Pakistan or Bangladesh. Bangabandhu died mortally unhappy for one mistaken decision.
In order to save the country’s economy deranged and damaged for reckless incompetence of the government international cooperation will be imperative to save the economy from the precipice of bankruptcy.
The democratic Constitution must not have remained buried, survive functionally robust.
A democratic Constitution is the outline of good governance and political stability.
The present day political leaders do not suit the bill to be called political leaders inasmuch as they were not ready to selflessly dedicate to serve the people.
Among the richest ones are the ones who call themselves political leaders of great eminence. Their bank accounts abroad will testify the truth.
I am citing these examples not out of any malice. Because to be a successful political leader he must be a man of selfless integrity.
For telling a lie in the parliament British Prime Minister Boris Johnson had to resign.
It cannot be right that the government will deny its own people free and fair election and yet they will call themselves people’s government.
