There is a saying that public memory is short lived and surpassed by new events. The political scene of Bangladesh is fast changing with new events surpassing old events in public mind. Considering the concerns expressed by various quarters including print and electronic media, one would focus on three events like August 17 bombing, Kansat and the latest one being police action on journalists in Chittagong. These events have somehow surpassed other events like killing of ASM Kibria, August 21 bombing on an AL rally, fire in parliament etc.
