I am not an expert who can express opinions clearly through newspapers. But what I am most concerned about is the situation in this impoverished country of 130 million people.

So I cannot keep quiet. As we see the so-called political parties in our country and their activities, it seems we are puppets in their hands. The goal of politics should be betterment of people and the whole nation. But things are not going the right way. At present most of the political leaders (88%) in Bangladesh are businessmen. Why parliament seats are virtually auctioned?

People want to know whether the politicians love the country or not.

Why money and muscle have become the main instruments in our politics? These questions need to be answered in the interest of the nation.
