[ALOCHONA] “AL must apologize to people for its past wrongdoings”

"AL must apologize to people for its past wrongdoings"
 
by Prakash Gupta
 
"AL does not practice what it preaches. It talks against the fundamentalists, but does not mind to forge alliance with Khelafat Majlish for winning elections. It strongly opposes autocracy but then forms alliance with them for the same reason – to win elections. Though AL is now demanding trial of the war criminals they did not do anything when they were in power. For all these AL will have to apologize to people," says General Secretary of Workers' Party Saiful Haq who is also the convener of the Democratic Left Alliance comprising 11 leftist political parties to Probe.
Haq points out that there is no qualitative difference between AL and BNP except that of the language. BNP criticizes India for vote, so does the AL against war criminals not because they really believe so but because they think such position goes well with the voters. Jamaat-e-Islami is a well-organized party and does have a vote bank, so AL is demanding trial of war-criminals only to make sure that BNP cannot make alliance with Jamaat.
Haq however believes that if AL agrees to apologize in public people might forgive them.  The leftist parties are discussing the matter. However seeking apology is not enough. We want to see its actions reflect its promises, Haq emphasizes. The Left Democratic Alliance is composed of BSD, Workers' Party, Samyabadi Dal, eight leftist parties and Sramojibi Mukti Andolon. Haq says that if the proposed dialogue between the government and the political parties is to be successful the emergency should be lifted and a favorable environment for elections will have to be created.
