On reading the speeches of Mr. Ashraf & Mr. Sen. Surenjit in news papers about the BNP proposal of annual expenditures according to program it seems that Parliament Members who are public paid & public representative are needed to learn more for earning more quality knowledge to know more about constitution & the purpose to make rules of law for constituting that in constitution to rule country & to lead the nation lawfully according to constitution.

JERUSALEM – Israel eased a three-year blockade of Gaza Wednesday to allow in some previously banned food items in an effort to defuse the worldwide furor over its deadly raid on a Gaza-bound international flotilla. But critics said the step falls far short of what is needed in the impoverished Palestinian territory.
In the first tangible step to temper the uproar caused by last week's raid, Israel only narrowly expanded the list of items that can enter by adding little more than snack foods and spices. It did not permit the most sought after items, such as cement, steel and other materials needed to rebuild the war-devastated territory and it was unlikely to ease international pressure.
"The international community is united in seeking an urgent and fundamental change in Israel's policy of blockading Gaza," said Maxwel Gaylard, the U.N.'s most senior humanitarian official in the Palestinian territories. "A modest expansion of the restrictive list of goods allowed into Gaza falls well short of what is needed. We need a fundamental change and an opening of crossings for commercial goods."
Israeli officials said the move was meant to defuse pressure for an international investigation of the May 31 raid. The clashes broke out after Israeli naval commandos boarded one of six ships on the flotilla and some of the hundreds of pro-Palestinian activists on board attacked them with pipes and other makeshift weapons. The Israelis killed nine.
The clash drew attention to the blockade, imposed by Israel and Egypt to punish and isolate Hamas militants who seized power of Gaza in 2007. Hamas does not recognize Israel, and refuses to renounce violence. Israel also wants to put pressure on Hamas to release a captured Israeli soldier it has held for four years.
The blockade prevents all but basic humanitarian items and consumer goods from getting in, bars exports and prevents the import of goods such as metal cans and tubs of margarine needed for industrial production.
Israel says the restrictions are needed to prevent Hamas, a group that has fired thousands of rockets into Israel, from rearming. It claims construction materials such as cement or metal could be used for military purposes.
Gaza has been mired in poverty for decades but the closure deepened the misery, erasing tens of thousands of jobs and preventing the area from repairing damage from a fierce Israeli military offensive last year launched in response to years of Hamas rocket attacks from the territory.
Palestinian official Raed Fattouh, who coordinates the flow of goods into Gaza with Israel, said soda, juice, jam, spices, shaving cream, potato chips, cookies and candy were now permitted. He said military officials began approving the expanded list of permitted products in meetings with Palestinian liaison officials last week.
Fattouh said Israeli officials rebuffed Palestinian requests for construction goods, raw materials for factories to operate and medical devices.
"I think Israel wants to diffuse international pressure," said Fattouh. "They want to show people that they are allowing things into Gaza. But it's not important for Gaza. The important thing for us is construction materials, electrical goods, notebooks, many things."
A Hamas spokesman, Sami Abu Zuhri, said the gesture was not worth commenting on.
An Israeli government official said authorities would continue to ease the blockade but could not lift the embargo altogether as long as Hamas remains in control.
The Israeli officials all spoke on condition of anonymity pending a formal government announcement.
Some of the items banned from Gaza seem arbitrary. Basic foodstuffs such as instant coffee and coriander were barred as luxury items, while more expensive foods such as herbal tea, salmon steaks and low-fat yogurt were permitted.
Sari Bashi, an Israeli human rights advocate whose group, Gisha, has led criticism of the blockade, called Israel's easing a "cosmetic" gesture.
"We are pleased that juice and sesame paste are no longer considered threats to Israeli security, but Israel needs to let in raw materials necessary to allow Gaza residents to engage in dignified, productive work," she said.
Israel has rejected calls for an international investigation into the raid, fearing it would be biased against the Jewish state. Instead, officials are working on a formula for an investigation to be run by Israelis while including some international observers. Israel has been seeking U.S. support for this approach, but so far has not been able to reach a formula.
"We are conferring with various factors in the international community regarding the appropriate process of investigation that will expose the facts on the Gaza flotilla. We know the truth," Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told an investors' conference.
Netanyahu said he, along with top government and military officials, would be willing to appear before the probe, but said it must look at key questions about the activists that clashed with the soldiers. Israel alleges they were hired mercenaries.

I am glad to see it.Mairead McGuire, Thank you for your step. It brings light and hope for million of people.
The Freedom Train Rides again. You are the heroes for a world stuck in its own hatred.
Break a bunch of maritme laws but we are not resisting...what bull!
Israel, America offshore military base.
a far more meaningful tragedy was when hezbolah murdered 300+ marines in their barracks in beirut.
the only relevant LIBERTY now is that hamas, hezbolah and their funders iran and syria deny it.
This was a crime, they attacked a boat in international waters, it's against international law.
We should refer Israel to the U.N. security council and U.N. International Court for crime against humanity, if you dont, you cant bring Iran or North Korea to the U.N. because they wont have any credibility.
International Law is for every country, none of them is above the Law not even Israel, is they are allowed to be above the law then everyone can break the law, justice for all or justice for none you must choose but you cant have justice for some
They are helping the people that lives under Israel control and occupation they live in a tiny concentration camp called Gaza they are helping the children of Gaza
As our learned dina khan is correctly saying:- At that time the famous Bengal leader Sher-E-Bangla AK Fazlul Hoque who raised the Lahore Resolution in 1940 was opposing for creating such type of Pakistan by Bengal division.
However as result of creation of Pakistan we have got one Independent country named Bangladesh (half Bengal) to do looting & corruption works by our dear sonar political leaders
Dear chottala readers,
1) Perfectly true because of Pakistan we are seeing Bangladesh now.
2) Similarly because of Bengalis, Pakistanis are seeing Pakistan now.
3) Why corruption is in Bangladesh only? In which country there is no corruption?
i) In India there is corruption. Even Prime Minister Late Rajib Gandhi
was entangled in Bofors scandal.
ii) Asif Ali Zardari is now named as 10% and is now increasing day by
day.
iii) Philippine's Marcos was entangled in corruption charges during his
tenure.
iv) Nigeria is full of corruption even exceeding all corrupted countries.
v) Italy's mafia group is wellknown throughout the world.
And in this way there are so many countries which are entangled in
corruption.
People of half Bengal (the then East Pakistan) because of their majority
votes took a tremendous part in the creation of Pakistan. As a result of
which:
a) The West Pakistanis by their corruption looted East Pakistan for 25 years.
b) When lootings were completed they gave ultimate reward to us in 1971.
Dowllah.
Not only charter but also needs in Bangladesh to change of all political leader's character.

Jamaat agrees to change charterTue, Jun 8th, 2010 1:50 am BdSTDhaka, June 7(bdnews24.com)—Jamaat-e-Islami has agreed to change the clause in its constitution on 'divine law' in the face of Election Commission's objection.
The fundamentalist religion-based party will exclude sub-clause 5 under section 2 which states, in short, that the only sovereign power is the almighty Allah and that the party would not accept any law except that of the almighty.
On top of that, opposition BNP's key ally will ensure that its central committee has 33 percent women as members by 2020.
Moreover, Jamaat submitted a written explanation about four other issues, secretary general Ali Ahsan Mohammad Mojaheed told reporters after a meeting with the Election Commission on Monday.
Chief election commissioner ATM Shamsul Huda, election commissioner M Sohul Hussain and the EC secretary were present at the meeting on the party's constitution.
A nine-strong Jamaat delegation included its assistant secretary Mohammed Kamaruzzaman, Abdul Kader Mollah and ATM Azharul Islam.
The party had been notified thrice by the EC to amend sections of its constitution that contradicted the country's constitution and electoral laws.
Mojaheed said, "A sentence of the constitution was supposed to be amended at the time of registration. But it appeared in the party's permanent constitution due to a printing mistake."
"The amendment will be made again," he said
Regarding women leadership, Mojaheed said it was at the footnote of the constitution but the EC demanded that the provision be included into the main body of the constitution.
The amendment will be made at a meeting of Jamaat's top decision-making body, the Majlish-e-Shura, scheduled in the first week of the next month, he said.
"Written explanation has been submitted to the Election Commission on some clauses including establishment of an Islam-based society based on justice and provisions for non-Muslims."
He said, "Bangladesh Communist Party's constitution speaks of establishing communism which is contrary to the state's constitution. But the Election Commission did not object to that."
"We do not think Election Commission's objection to establishment of an Islamic society based on justice is rational," he said.
"Both BNP and Awami League have a tradition for nominating candidates. Jamaat-e-Islami also nominates its candidates based on the decision of party's Majlish-e-Shura."
"The Election Commission has said that it will inform us about its decision later."
Regarding Jamaat's constitution, CEC Shamsul Huda said Jamaat aspired to establish a religion-based society.
But according to law, a party's constitution cannot discriminate against citizens on the basis of religion, gender, colour, creed, race or sect, he said indicating that a religion-based party was bound to discriminate.
"We asked for an explanation since the law and Jamaat's constitution contradicted each other in spirit."
"This is the first time that Jamaat has spoken of non-Muslim membership in its constitution," he said, adding that a letter was sent to Jamaat asking it to amend six issues.
"They have agreed on two amendments and gave explanations regarding the other four issues in writing."
The election chief said his office would seek further amendments if Jamaat's response is found unsatisfactory.
