Top two

A local Bengali daily has carried a news item that the two leaders in jail will have to agree to “three conditions” to get released from jail. I have no intention to repeat the conditions mentioned, but the conditions look like an arbitrary formula of the government to pave the way for controlled democracy. I have doubt that these would be acceptable to the two leaders or to their party cadres. These conditions seem to be a hard line approach of the government, but the scope of negotiation cannot still be ruled out, hopefully.
The government seem to have taken a firm policy of " head I win, tail you lose". The people who are the source of all power of this Republic as per the constitution are not behind or with them.
