Stop experimenting!

Like all great religions, the basics of all great constitutions are alike. When our constitution was written it was not drafted from scratch, rather it was drafted in line with other great constitutions. Now, if all other great constitutions are followed by their respective citizens even in trying times, why in Bangladesh, we try to change the constitution every now and then to achieve some so called "Bangladesh specific" goals. This is especially alarming and disgraceful when the call for constitutional change comes from non-elected people.Time to time public sentiment may swing towards the extreme and a change of constitution may be contemplated, but such urge must be restrained. Life comes back to normal again, and those changes start to create problems and the revered constitution requires another amendment to purge the change, leaving it a notch down in terms of dignity.
