Where are the patriots?
A.K.M. Fakhrul Alam, Siddheswari Lane, Dhaka
It appeared in a Bangla daily that Hindu, Buddist, Christian Oikyo Parishad in the US submitted a memorandum to Mr. Joseph Crawley, Congressman and the Chairman of Bangladesh Caucus, demanding a national government in Bangladesh. It seems Mr. Joseph Crawley is the authority to decide who would rule Bangladesh and not the 140 million people of the country.The same character is seen among the politicians of Bangladesh too. Whoever are in the opposition, they are continuously approaching the representatives / ambassadors of the donor agencies/countries, highlighting exaggerated stories of the failures of the ruling party, seeking their help to unseat the government and put the opposition in power, as if the donor agencies/ countries are the decision makers. Due to this bankrupt nature of the political parties and also some vested quarters, it is being observed that the representatives of donor agencies/ countries are interfering in sensitive internal issues of the country, which is beyond the terms of reference of Vienna Convention. Such picture cannot be seen anywhere in the world other than in an occupied territory(s). Our political parties, specially the leaders, are solely responsible for such a situation.
