Mr. Ullah,
If revisiting BAKSAL (which was very short-lived and experimental) over
and over again gives you some solace for your extreme right-wing
circle's massive election defeat, then please do not forget to re-post
this message once a month for the next five years.

political parties were outlawed at the time, and the period from 1973 to
1975 in which BAKSAL existed, was seen as a one-party dictatorship. The
BAKSAL dissolved after Rahman's assassination on August 15, 1975, and
the KSP and League became independent political parties. The party
advocated state socialism.
