[ALOCHONA] Killing innocent people is not friendly act

 
Killing innocent people is not friendly act
 
Bangladesh got India as the most dependable friend and ally during its Liberation War in 1971. Many Indian soldiers laid down their valued lives as sacred sacrifice for Bangladesh. We very gratefully appreciate and acknowledge their heroic deeds. This is really unforgettable. In the same perspective we expect India to remain ever bound in the bond of friendship with Bangladesh unconditionally like those of our liberation days in the hours of our sorrow and suffering. We always believe that a friend in need is a friend in deed. We must have that reciprocity. It is our good government that maintains good relations with all countries, especially the neighbouring friendly countries in all respect.
 
Since Farakka Barrage was constructed in India, Bangladesh is suffering being a lower riparian country bordering India. As a result, agro-economy of Bangladesh has since been seriously affected. Due to some intransient policy of the Indian government the problem is yet to be settled. The people of Bangladesh has been forbearing this inhuman act of India due to its inalienable friendship with India for ages immemorial to history. Meanwhile Bangladesh is sharing interests, more or less, with India being bound in the comity of the SAARC nations. In spite of a very heavy trade imbalance between India and Bangladesh it has been keeping dependable space in its trades and commercial enterprises. A railway link between these two countries is going to be set aright soon.
 
Moreover, we expect, if the visa system between the SAARC countries is withdrawn, the interaction between the people of these poor countries would be progressing further in all respect towards alleviating poverty. Not only physical communication but also moral and psychological communication would have to be prioritised by the governments and the people of these concerned countries. This is the matter of intelligence and sagacity of the leaders of these nations.
 
We are sometimes frustrated to go through the media that many of our innocent farmers, small traders like cattle traders or peddlers or common people or wanderers bordering India are often being shot down and killed or wounded or kidnapped from within our sovereign area by the Indian Border Security Force personnel without provocation.
 
Can anybody expect such inhuman conduct from any friendly neighbour? There is hardly any remedial measure that has ever been taken by the government of India except some flag meetings between the BSF and BDR officials.
 
This can never be termed friendliness. This sort of hostility must be stopped forever.
No common people in Bangladesh would entertain such cruelty from Indian side easily. The human grievances that culminate enmity are inherent.
 
The Indian government should take care of it immediately and arrange to stop killing our Bangladeshi innocent people inhumanly by the BSF personnel. They must also be ordered not to cross the no-man's land. The killed and wounded people should be compensated and the culprits be punished after proper investigation.
 
It is obviously true that incursion of Indian and Bangladeshi borders by the people of both the areas are evident now and then. Because the division of Bengal in 1947 as per Radcliffe Award was so half hazard and irrelevant that the common people of both the countries fail to understand the demarcation lines while this border areas are vast and horizontally long.
Only there are some key posts for the security personnel of both the countries to keep on watching trespass or illegal incursion. It does not mean that the Border Security Force personnel without any judgment should give the innocent or ignorant people death penalties for trespassing or illegal incursions, if there is any. What legal authority has been bestowed upon the security personal by the constitution of their respective countries to execute such capital punishment by gun shooting to their alien or own people?
 
We in Bangladesh are shocked on hearing the killings of people at Satkhira and Thakurgaon borders, by the Indian Border Security Force personnel who trespassed inside Bangladesh.
No free and democratic country on earth can allow such an untoward occurrence time and again. It is regrettable to say that our innocent people of the independent and democratic free country had been the prey or victim of the senseless gun-shooters of another friendly democratic country. How can it be possible? Would government of India rein the killers of its own establishment? It should be, the sooner the better.
