Sheikh Hasina is now positioned at the most critical juncture of the national history, at a very dangerous crossroads. A wrong move would plunge the nation into a perpetual path of darkness and destruction. The challenge before her is to prove her statesmanship, political acumen and wisdom.

You are talking of statesmanship, political acumen, wisdom but the prime minister does not possess any of these virtues at this point of time!

Just goes to show that democracy is a joke in Bangladesh and the frivolous politicians couldn't care less for democratic norms and the people, and why should they? With unlimited terms and very little choice among the voters to choose only from the so-called two leading parties, they can expect to be voted no matter what.

Ban Ki-moon should understand that these two ladies and their cohorts are not capable of resolving the issue.

Sheikh Monirul Islam, Opee
Right time for the people to act and reject both political parties without anymore delay.

“It's indeed a dark episode” (August 25, 2013)

What was the VC guilty of?

I'm in no way condoning the JU teachers' line of agitation, but all these fiascos could have been avoided if only the JU VC Anwar Hassain had resigned earlier out of his own self-respect. After all, it was him who went back on his promise to expel the BCL goon who publicly assaulted a senior teacher of JU in April. His naked partiality is not unknown.

I think these university teachers are devoid of any sense of embarrassment.
