On a third party...

Certainly, we need a change to get out of the two-party cycle of misrule.

Dr. B is an educated person, no doubt. But I am not sure how much change can be expected from him. The reason behind my doubt is, like other political parties, BNP politicians have been involved in hazy practices all along. Lack of complete dedication to the development of people's life was persistent from day one of the inception of the party. And Dr. B survived all those years! That shows that his disagreement with the rest of the party is a minor one.

I am not trying to undermine any good initiative, but Dr. B must remember that his effort and agenda have to address chronic problems of our nation. His policies must stand out from the rest of the political parties. Only this can make him successful in bringing about a major change. The opposition political parties are now on the streets and will welcome any anti-government initiative. If Dr. B goes with those creeps, he will have no chance to make the desired changes.

The civil society must acknowledge that no matter how much glittering we see in the city's neon lights, or roads being made rickshaw-free, overall quality of life has gone down to an unbearable point, and its continuing. We need a big change, and educated honest people must come forward to save the nation from the evil parasites .

My hearty support to Dr. B's initiative as long as it is for our collective good..
