Says Mainul
Unb, Dhaka
Law and Information Adviser Mainul Hosein yesterday said the country is not running in line with the normal rule of law because of the prevailing state of emergency under which it's not always possible to go by the constitution.He made the observations while talking to reporters at his information ministry office about the achievements made by the caretaker government in the last six months. "We are not always running the country towards the right track, but we are tying to do so," the adviser said, pointing to an unusual situation that brought them at the helm of power. Frankly admitting the inability to keep the economy dynamic, Mainul said business and investment are discouraged in an atmosphere marked by apprehensions. The adviser said the main achievement of the caretaker government was to rescue the country from a possible anarchy and save the nation from an impending civil war. He accused the political parties of creating such situation and alleged that the unholy activities of the political parties had resulted in that situation and the formation of the present caretaker government. Responding to a query about the withdrawal of ban on indoor politics, the adviser said the government is thinking about withdrawal of the restrictions conditionally. "But some people have requested us not to lift the ban on indoor politics," he said, indicating the standpoint of the emerging new brand of reformist politicians. Terming the present caretaker government unusual one, Mainul said the main goal of this government is to establish a corruption-free democratic country.
