Tongi election
The local body election in Tongi Municipality, the adjacent one to Dhaka metropolis, has shown a definite trend in the formation of public opinion ahead of national polls. Needless to say, this is the public reaction to five year-long misrule of the four-party alliance. Soaring prices, deteriorating law and order and all out politicisation are taking their tolls.
We urge the government to take the defeat gracefully and learn the due lesson from these elections.
