Hartal: Never the right way.. PHOTO: AKM Mohsin
Yesterday we witnessed another hartal. The school-going children missed their schools and many people got an extra day off, all in the name of bringing an end to the deteriorating law and order situation. Since many of the leaders, who call hartal, sent their wards to schools abroad, they don't notice the difference. The opposition congratulates the people for observing the hartal. We're tired of this game.

We have seen the performance of the main opposition, and now we are witnessing the performance of the ruling party. The opposition did no better when it was in power.

Give us respite! Let's say an emphatic 'no' to hartal.
