Democracy?

It's truly shocking and shameful the way they are treating Dr. Chowdhury and Mr. Mannan, especially destroying his business ventures and freezing bank accounts. I strongly believe that it's profoundly repugnance violation of democratic rights as well as obvious breach of human rights. This is a very self defeating strategy for the BNP to send the signal to others that they would face the same fate as Mr. Mannan if they speak their mind.

I think people in other democratic countries including USA, and my beloved country Bangladesh, are very content with the notion that democracy is all about protecting and promoting majority's rights. But I believe that not a single democracy will ever survive in the long-haul without advice and consent of minority (political party like Mr. Chowdhury's one). The BNP should do some soul-searching. People should be ruled by the law of the land not by the will of other ignorant men. I would like to take this opportunity to wish the very best luck to Mr. Chowdhury and Mr. Mannan in their noble endeavour.
