Election -2007
It is apparent that the people of Bangladesh are much more aware about the electoral system than before. All the media are playing a very important role in this regard. The dialogue initiated by the civil society is noteworthy!
Like many, I think there is no need for caretaker govt. What we require is reform to the Election Commission.
I think if the people vote for the party symbol, then there is no need for poster printing; no individual candidate will spend money for purchasing votes and all the people of the country will be represented in the parliament. The parties also have to practise democracy within . This system is in vogue in many countries.
For all latest news, follow The Daily Star's Google News channel. The media can initiate a dialogue in this regard. I can only say that the initiative taken by the civil society is a noble venture, but how this can be made effective is a big question.
