Re: [chottala.com] Mr Surenjit Sen......Politics, politicians and the government (Published at www.newagebd.com)

Mr Babu Surenjit Sen Gopta The great Lawyer the Ex Lawmaker & the Ex Parliamentarian Teacher. With great honor you are being asked on listening on 29 May your BBC commitment about the nonsense dialogue talking with the politically less experienced CTG. If this CTG is not elected CTG then who are now elected to rule the country?? Have no constitutional Idea that the present CTG has been appointed by the Elected President & the term of this Elected President will be life long until the next MP election will be held to elect next President? So according to rules of the present constitution until next president election this CTG is the legal Government to rule the country & to do any dialogue talking with any body or any forum if CTG thinks it needs to talk or if think it may not need to talk. Do you not know?? The politicians to do legal talking or to give any agenda for dialogue talking according to the rules of democracy & rues of Law it requires people's mandate & to get the people'' mandate the politicians are needed to contest in the election. Without election there is no any alternative way for the politicians to get the people's mandate. Without mandate there is no any lawful way for the politicians to execute their plan program & agenda. If they (the politicians) do any breaking works closing works destroying works & burning works to execute their peoples' mandate less demands or agendas it will be according the Criminal Codes of Law Criminal Offences which resisting the duty are of the people's paid law executing authority Chowkhidar, Ansers  Police, BDR & lastly Army. Is it not known to you better than any body???   --- On Fri, 30/5/08, gopalsengupta@aol.com <gopalsengupta@aol.com> wrote: From: gopalsengupta@aol.com <gopalsengupta@aol.com> Subject: [chottala.com] Politics, politicians and the government (Published at www.newagebd.com) To: mukto-mona@yahoogroups.com, khabor@yahoogroups.com, notun_bangladesh@yahoogroups.com, hazarikaa@hotmail.com, chottala@yahoogroups.com, vinnomot@yahoogroups.com, Diagnose@yahoogroups.com, uttorshuri@yahoogroups.com Date: Friday, 30 May, 2008, 12:04 AM Politics, politicians and the government The detention of two former prime ministers by the military-driven caretaker government is a blot on our democracy. Clearly, the court and police are unwilling to consider their record as popular party leaders and their records of service to the people.    The caretaker government’s stance on the issue compromises its responsibility to uphold the rights guaranteed by the constitution. Every citizen has a right to speech and association and the government ought to protect these rights. They also have a right to a speedy and fair trial.    As Bangladesh sets out to expand its influence in global affairs, its record on civil rights will increasingly be under scrutiny. No government can claim special powers and suspend civil rights like freedom of speech and association.    The trial of the two former prime ministers has now started after a year they spent in prison. Scores of similar under-trial detainees are languishing in Bangladesh’s makeshift jails. It just doesn’t do any good to Bangladesh’s brand image as a country that protects civil rights. Democracy enhances Bangladesh’s soft power potential on the world stage. However, disregard for democratic rights will take the sheen off Bangladesh’s patchy but promising record as a liberal democracy. Make a practice to judge persons and things in the most favourable light at all times, in all circumstances.    Gopal Sengupta    Canada (Published in The Daily New Age on May 30,2008) www.newagebd. com
