http://alapbangladesh.com/blog/2009/02/08/reimaging-bnp/
News coming out from different news organization depict a rather sad
tale of BNP. BNP supporters are frustrated, downhearted and without
any real goal. To get BNP out of this mud hole there are couple of
things that it can do to re image itself to the ordinary people. Below
is a list of steps that it can take.
1. Bring the old reformists to the BNP specially Mannan Bhuiyan and
his group.
2. Remove old guards and controversial leaders from the party and make
sure anyone with corrupt credentials like Tareq, Koko, Mamun, Babar
can not come back to BNP. We know it was the corrupt ministers, MPs
and their relatives who destroyed the image of the party.
3. Take grassroots leaders recommendations to democratically
revitalize the party. Take the bottom up approach instead of top to
the bottom. The party leaders should be elected not thrust upon and
through vote.
4. Remove Jaamat out of the alliance and stop gambling with BNP's
reputation. BNP's reputation was damaged due to its attachment to Jaamat.
5. Reconstitute the party committees with younger leaders with clean
image and honest attitudes.
6. Create a new constitution with in the party that adheres and
practices democratic norms and not some family politics.
7. Hold central council session as specified in the constitution every
two years or even change that to every year.
8. Change the old mentality of politics, hartal, attitude of
boycotting the parliament.
9. Accept the defeat and congratulate the new government. Lend in hand
to work with the party.
10. Stop grudging against the CTG and take responsibility for its own
mistakes and congratulate CTG for a fair and clean election.
It is the grassroots leaders who are the bread and barter of BNP and
they should be treated with respect and their comments should be taken
seriously. Only then BNP can come out of its misery and be a viable
leading party. Bangladeshi will surely give them the right credit they
deserve if they can play it right.
