Top two leaders


I don't think you can force Khaleda Zia & Sheikh Hasina out of politics.

It was a tactical error by the people concerned to force them out. But I feel, and this feeling is shared by many, that they should quit politics. If we go back to the pre-1/11 situation we would see a political turmoil and many feared if the situation didn't improve, there might have been a civil war in the country. We have come back from that situation, thanks to the Armed Forces. But the sufferings we have endured in those days were unbearable and someone should take the responsibility and I think it is the two major political parties. It is because of their lust for power that we were in that situation.

So, it is my firm belief that being the absolute leaders of the AL and the BNP Sheikh Hasina & Kaleda Zia should quit politics. They have served us for two decades with not much grace. Corruption, bad governance, nepotism, and undemocratic attitude were the main features of their brand of democracy.
