Bangladesh is passing through a grave crisis. Nobody is safe in this country any more, not even the journalists. Bomb attacks have been going on for quite a long time. But we can notice a change in the targets of the terrorists. In the past , we saw common people falling victim to bomb attacks, but the situation is different now. Eminent politicians are being targeted and the country has been pushed to the brink of total chaos.

The government must address the issue in right earnest, or risk a descent to chaos or confusion that might go out of control.
