War criminals and election
There is a proverb that "Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it". I was not born when this country achieved its independence. But I could not ignore the history of our liberation war as history never lies. History admits how the brave sons of this soil sacrificed their lives for our independence, how they fought for us, how mothers lost sons, how sisters lost brothers to gave us freedom. History also reveals that a few people, those known as Rajakars ( and members of Al-Badr), were against the independence of Bangladesh. These war criminals not only tried to defeat our freedom fighters but also killed so many innocent people. It makes me cry when I read the story of genocide, 1971. Now it makes me frustrated when I see that war criminals are competing in our national parliamentary election and some of us are actively working for them.
The father of this nation, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, declared a general pardon for the war criminals. But that does not mean that we can forget the genocide committed by them.
Would it not be a shame for us if we see that war criminals are making laws for us and carrying out the responsibility of protecting the flag of Bangladesh? I would like to request the fellow citizens of my country not to forget History. Please do not vote for the war criminals.
