Sad state of affairs
Iqbal Ahmed, New Eskaton, Dhaka
Bangladesh does not belong to any political party, individual or any particular family. It belongs to 140 million people of the country. But through their actions and behaviour, both Sheikh Hasina and Khaleda Zia want to show us that Bangladesh belongs to them only. What a shame! By doing so they are insulting those great leaders, people and the valiant freedom fighters who struggled, fought and sacrificed their lives for an independent Bangladesh. Also due to their poor performance the country is going backwards instead of moving forward. In the BBC Bangla Service listeners' opinion polls on the Greatest Bengalees of All Times, we see the name of Professor Golam Azam(?). What a surprise! Unfortunately not a single listener named Tajuddin Ahmed, Justice Abu Sayeed Chowdhury and Pandit Ravi Shankar as the Greatest Bengalees of All Times. On the whole a sad state of affairs.
