[ALOCHONA] Fw: New Political Scenario in Bangladesh

-----
 

New Political Scenario in Bangladesh : Election Should Be Held On Time

 

 

Sheikh Hasina has returned to Bangladesh after five months stay abroad on parole  for treatment of eye and ear. As usual in the case of such leaders, she was welcomed by a large number of  workers and supporters at the Airport main gate and several points on the way to her house.

 

As she did not get bail from the supreme court on the extortion case filed by Azam Chowdhury , the government submitted final report in the case to facilitate her free political work.The court has accepted the final report  which said that there was  no evidence  and this case is now over. It is strange that such cases are filed against such high personages only for political purpose.This is obviously true of some other cases against  Khaleda Zia , Matiur Rahman Nizami and some other ministers .Thers is no point in maintaining those cases now and the government should withdraw such cases.

With the arrival of Sheikh Hasina , registration of main parties  and declaration of election schedule , political situation has changed substantially. Awami League has demanded rescheduling of Upazilla election and the BNP led four party alliance have demanded re scheduling the entire schedule but none has demanded delaying Parliament election beyond 18th December.

 

We hope the government and election commission will  quickly resolve the impasse. BNP alliance has said that the government announced acceptance of six points out of seven but action has not been formally taken. This point requires to be sorted out.We urge all that we are so close to the election and we should not miss it..Lot of time has been fittered away.Election could have been held in January if AL alliance would not withdraw the nomination papers after submitting them, election could have been held even around  March 2007 or at the most around September 2007  by the present government  after correcting the previous voter list as had been done before. The abiding by the constitution was more important than voter list with photograph. It has been established in surveys that impersonation in polling  is about one percent only, the rigging takes place mainly  by capturing polling centers and sealing in the ballot paper, the photographed voter list can not solve this problem. That problem can be reduced only by security arrangement.But things  happened and un-elected government continued.Even then we urge all parties including BNP-Jamaat four party  alliance, AL led alliance, the government and others not to make small issues big, feel the responsibility to the people, nation and history.
