Opposition goes the right way


At last the opposition started following the right way to protest against corruption in the government. In our country opposition parties tried to make us believe that "Hartal" is the most effective way to protest. But people always rejected this idea. The successful human chain from Teknaf to Tetulia indicates that opposition parties started to respond to the demand of the people. In this country more than seventy percent people are

against hartal but still politicians call it. Hartal produces terrorists. Hartal is always enforced by pickets and not observed by people. Pickets often use bombs, burn cars, destroy shops and others properties etc. These activities are clearly terrorism and when hartal enforcers are behind these kind of terrorism it is likely that terrorism will increase in the country. Hartal does little harm to the government and is dangerous for the people and for the economy. So in my opinion whoever calls hartal is against the people and is promoting terrorism. Another important point is that before changing the government we should find out honest people who will run it in future. If we replace one corrupt regime by another, the end result will be a big zero.
