| The people's requirement is good honest skilled active administration for facing their problems & solving the problems. But it is the culture of Bangladesh politicians that is not to follow the rules of democracy & the rules of service code administration either in power or not in power. They are when in power doing looting work's politics & using the public servants the police the courts all the government administrations even the education & commercial sections for doing politics in favor of them and they are not when in power are doing destroying works closing & burning works to creating nation wide disasters for the people of Bangladesh. The couture of the media people in Bangladesh is not for circulating correct news but the making news for circulating to creating confused situation

"What the law minister said has no forceful innovation. Democratically elected parliament constructed 1972 constitution on the other hand inclusion of Islam as state religion, faith in Allah, inclusion of Bismillah and allowing religion to be used as tool for politics rather then worshworshiping; Allah was not constituted by parliament rather proclamation by undemocratic military regime."
Mr Shamim Chowdhury, lets bear in mind, President Zia was the elected president of Bangladesh. During the ruling of dictator Mujib, there were no other suitable alternatives but to forcefully revolt against dictator Mujib, you need to rewind and relearn the history with bitter pill, it's very hard for you to swallow. But, lets hear the true historical facts, no matter how unpleasant it could be! There were great unrest in the Army subsequent days as event unfold, and General Zia came to power. But, Zia was the most pragmatic and populist president of Bangladesh until his death of 29th March, 1981.
About the constitution, any countries can be ammended by certain measure. There were some constitutional ammendendments after the election of 1977, giving the shape of Islamic nation while 95% population is muslim. I see nothing wrong here! Even in America, every president swear in Bible, even in American Senate, we say, 'In God, we trust'. What is different saying 'Bismillahir rahmanir rahim' as a part of our faith? Mr Chowdhury, are you ashamed to be a Muslim?
I understand there is a discothomy in 'Sharia law' in modern day ascendary. There is a greater need to revolutionaze Islamic Laws as a part of rule of law, which need to happen gradually. Its a challenge for everyone to struggle our life in light of religion. I am not denying the fatcs, but, the good-will should continue. Let me say it clearly, I do not favor a Taliban-country, that is unprecedently premedeavel, unsustaible in for any modern day foreign policy.
Mr Chwodhury has a big rant, and looks like he got few big fans with snoopy-dogs. Its dubious for Mr Chowdhury to write as Muslim sympathizer while his underlying motive is to banish Islam or support Awami Mantra.
In certain measure, there is a derision about religion, there is a discontent about faith. But, America, most powerful of G20, is the most religious country. Tolerance, not secularism, should be our ideological mantra. We can be a proud muslim, while we respect all inhibitants of Bangladeshis of all religions. We should teach our future generation and in our text books, about faith. And certainly, it plays a very positive role in our life, to be successful here and hereafter. We should fight to erdicate ignorance, not religion. We should fight to erdaicate corruption, we should fight for social justice. Mr Chowdhury, secularism is not a choice, if you really understand what secularism truly means, do you?
