An appeal
Manna Chowdhury, On e-mail
Ever since the caretaker government came to power there is a competition going on among a group of newspapers to malign everyone associated with the immediate past govt, as if there was no corruption before the BNP-led opposition came to power. So far the caretaker govt has done a splendid job by trying to be judicious in terms of arresting the corrupt people. But the way a section of the print media has started publishing stories, it might even make the most neutral attempt myopic. Very interestingly, their stories go around the last five years. Nothing is said about how the BNP did a relatively clean job during their first tenure or how the AL got involved in mindless corruption right throughout their stint in the govt. The press should rise above petty party politics.
