[vinnomot] Re: Shujan’s Bodiul Alam Majumdar exposes himself

I agree with Mr. Rumi Ahmed about Bodi Majumdar who left some Bod bags in his past and continues to create an illusion of good governance and electing good people to parliament. In reality there is not much difference between suspicious Change Bangladesh and Shujan.
Both Shujan and Change Bangladesh are bunch of hippocras got together to serve their narrow monitorial interest. Prior to January 11th of 2007 they served Khaleda Zia-Tarek Zia, now they are waiting to be advised by DGFI. But they are too microscopic to get there attention.
Thank you Mr. Rumi Ahmed for bringing bloogers attention to these miniscule criminal outlets. Thanks to you Mr. Asalm for providing this information.
Sincerely
Shamim Chowdhury

This Bodi Majumdar was the instrumental intellectual warrior against politicization of EC during Khaleda Zia rule. He was all over, all vocal in favor of EC which will be free of political influence. And he did leave no stone unturned in finding out every possible fault the previous EC could make.
But today, on the eve of another politically motivated, ill-intentioned act of EC, he is already out with sword to defend the decision.
The shocking unlawful and immoral election commission rule of depriving mainstream BNP of EC recognition came late yesterday evening. I presume prothom-Alo went to press within a couple of hours. And in that couple of hours, he came up with this rather long piece of garbage in the name of BNP constitution analysis to defend the catastrophic decision of Election commission. Look at this Bodi Majumdar! What, then, did he preach all these years!! And after his menacingly long piece of trash analysis he concludes that the decision of EC should be supported in greater public interest. Which public you are talking about Mr Bodi the Majumdar? And what interest you are talking about? And what was your real interest all these years?

    Look at, how people become stupid. When people have guilty feeling they make silly mistake. In the Soifur-Hazif mid-night meeting there were 6 members of BNP Standing committee out of eleven. They were Sacked secretay 1. Abdul, 2. Soifur Rahman, 3. Mahbubur Rahman, 4.Tanvir Ahmed Siddiqui, 5. Khondhoker Mahbub, and 6.RA Gani. 7 Khondhoker and 8. Abdul Matin Chowdhury remained absent. And 9. Moudud Ahmed 10. Khondhker Musharraf and 11. Khaleda Zia are in Jail.
    We know and it was reported in all the papers 6 standing committee member were there included fired secretary. So virtually 5 active members were there. But EC secretary read out the EC decision and said BNP standing committee meeting and decision was valid as 7 members of SC was there and so there was the quorum. What a lie they started at the very inception!
    Thanks.

    Rumi bhai,
    Thank you for highlighting this double standard from our vocal pre-1/11 "democracy activists". The tragedy is that their stated goals are something that both BNP and AL people should agree on, something that you and I and a lot of other people can agree on. The complete moral bankruptcy and partisan-ship of "civil society" people will end up strengthening anti-democratic forces within Bangladesh and make it harder for true democracy activists in the next generation.

    I was going to leave this comment in another thread. But most of them has a lot of angry comments already, and Rumi bhai is moving on, and it's somewhat related here too.
    Come on guys, cheer up. As all the gloves and masks are off, politics is now out in the open. Surely that's a good thing.
    Think about it.
    We all wanted regeneration (reform is already a dirty word, and shongshkarponthi will join dalal as a gali pretty soon) of our parties. If BNP had proper organisation, someone like Hafiz could never have risen to the prominence that he did. At the end of the current crisis, either the General or Begum Zia will be standing, and if it is the latter, hopefully she'll learn the lessons from it.

    You can't fit western mindset to Desi politicking.
    In west where basic needs are pretty much guaranteed, one can afford to maintain an ideological identity, be it leberal, conservative, democrate, republican etc. In Desi culture where no one is guaranteed a social security and no one is content, the ideological component in political identity takes a backstage. Yet, the basic principle of a political party tend to be preserved out of a collective identical thought process. Thats why BNP is center right and AL is center left.
    In desi setup, India can be a great example. A dictatorial family run congress has so far delivered democaracy to India. In this desi setup ideology can be purchased. e.g. in case BNP, number 2 to 10, all got purchased by power greed/fear and similarly in AL, old guards like Tofael, Rajjak, Jalil, Amu deserted their leader for being part of a ruling coterie. When you have such a reality, a dictatorial family run democracy may be better that an AL or BNP which will split @ 15 times a year and at the end of the year, there would be 46 fractions. Remember Muslim league or NAP ? Additionally, each time a new General steps out of the barrack, these parties will compete each other welcoming the sharper sword.
    Should I repeat why Khaleda Hasina in jail now? It is because, with this leaders at the helm, their parties could not be purchased or intimidated. Only this statement should speak volumes in favor of current form of political party leadership. Reality is always very unpleasant.

    This is not time to 'cheer up'.
    Such 'dakati' and 'dakats' are danger to society and needs lessons. Protest of such dakati should continue not cheered.

    Rumi, oh how much I enjoy reading your close to the ground analysis! What we have here is a battle of proxies between the leaders and managers who wish to be leaders.
    Conventional wisdom during pre 1/11 propagated the view that the top two leaders were the source of the problem and eliminating them would cure the disease that had forced our political process into a stalemate. What was missed in this oversimplification and highly chauvinistic analysis and what you have rightfully pointed out, was that these two incompetent and belligerent Netris were the glue that held their respective parties together, which would make them legitimate leaders.
    If you permit me to be a bit academic here, there is a plausible hypothesis that in some pre-industrial societies like ours where the radius of trust does not extend beyond the realm of family, large institutions are generally sustained either in the public sector or they tend to be family run enterprises. With the expulsion of the two leaders from the helm, the state is now trying to manage, with the blessings of people like Bodiul Alam Mojumder, the operation of the two major parties. You can simply look at the current situation in Iraq to see the ultimate end of this line of maneuvering of the political process by well intentioned bureaucrats.
    The two Netris may have made Bangladesh dysfunctional in many respects, but the responsibility of breaking Bangladesh will be on the shoulders of the CTG and those who continue to back its misadventures.

    Rumi bhai, I take your point about the importance of the family name / symbolism holding the parties together. And I presume this is also true at local levels - how many MPs and local chairmen are sons/daughters/wives/nephews of past MPs and chairmen? And this is not only a Desi thing. Many senators and MPs in most western countries have deep family history in politics.
    But my point wasn't about getting rid of the leaders or families. My point is, masks are off - people can see who is standing where and calling for what.
    And as you say, there is still an ideology - no matter how imprecise, that's why AL is centre-left and BNP is centre-right. With everything out in the open, people can now judge for themselves.
    All those in the centre-right has a choice to make - fudging like Khaleda Zindabad but also Moeen Zindabad won't do. And for all those on the centre-left, the generals are not going to give up without a fight.
    Since everything is out in the open, surely that's a good thing.

    I'm with Jyoti bhai on this one. Since April I've been briefing about five Americans per month, on average, about the current situation in Bangladesh, and for those who aren't in the know, the situation gets confusing very quickly. "How is it a military government if there is a civilian cabinet?" "Have Khaleda and Hasina been arrested?" "Isn't there such a thing caled the caretaker government in your constitution?" and so on.
    Fortunately lately, we've been able to dispel a lot of these confusions. What we are looking for is a simplified narrative and moral clarity, and the military government's viciousness is increasingly providing it to the whole world. Much better to have everything out in the open. Or as I keep telling everyone, things are going to have to get a whole, whole lot worse before they can ever start improving.

While Major Hafiz was distributing police pass ( How he gets police pass?) to let only friendly people enter, it became clear that he is scared of the grassroots activists who were waiting patiently outside for hours.
