AL does not know how to honour democracy and people's rights.

“Waiting for the dead” (August 7, 2014)
Afreen
Now our BIWTA, BIWTC, and police are busy searching for dead bodies! Why can't the authorities be strict in monitoring that no launches will be overloaded and drivers will follow weather forecast? We know there is shortage of vehicles. But isn't it better to wait rather than going home taking life risk? Our Eid vacation should start earlier so that people get more time to go home and come back.

“Strict monitoring, plenty of scope for misuse” (August 5, 2014)
Lipon Ghosh
It may not be an amendment. I think it is an attempt to choke the media.

First, the voters' rights have been taken away. Now the last nail in the coffin of democracy has been put with this so-called broadcast policy. Democracy is truly dead in Bangladesh. Would wait to see TDS's reaction to this policy.
Saleh Md. Shahriar
It is not clear how a piece of information will be assessed whether it is prejudicial to state security or not. The way of judging/assessing a piece must be open and transparent based on set principles. The common people will never accept any policy of the government that is mainly designed to limit the free flow of information. Media control in the name of policy is totally antithetical to the fundamentals of democracy.
