Today in our beloved country an intolerable political situation is prevailing. The political parties of our country are using hartal as an implement with a view to ousting the government. But they will not gain any benefit out of this violent course. People are suffering and hartal has a crippling effect on the economy.

We should work out how much time and money we are losing due to the hartals. There are hundreds of thousands of unemployed youths in the country and the hartal is only reducing our ability to absorb them . It is high time to look into the issue and bring back sanity to politics.
