If you look at the society now-a-days you will come to see that the uneducated, Dhandabaj people are in charge of the society. Particularly annoying are the local ward commissioners of both the BNP and the Awami League. What is their role? Who are they? The honest answer is that they are surely not the envisaged ones. They have local mastans working under them and often they allegedly grasp other's property. A ward commissioner who is not as much educated or skilled has crores of taka and power. How can people like you who are educated not see that this system of having ward commissioners who are often trouble some needs to be changed?
