BNP's problems
The BNP's forward planning leading to the next general elections is strewn with increasing problems, as the party leaders grapple desperately with the changing situations in the politics of the times. To them, the AL is a 'nuisance', not a threat. Today traditional approaches do not get a front seat, and old strategies won't work. The public is very much conscious, politically and religiously. The immoral black holes in the political sky do not need telescopes to confirm. The oppressed citizens cannot any longer be taken for a ride. (An astute politician like Vajpayee faded into nowhere after the last general election in India). Message: Learn from your neighbours!
The religious shadows (globally) are ominous. Pucca die hard political leaders can no longer be entrusted with the nation's well being, as they move in grooves, and cannot adjust to the changing requirements of the decade. Are they aware of the political greenhouse effect?
The BNP will face serious competition in the coming elections, if held in time, before time, or postponed for an uncertain period. The Islamic political parties would get more votes due to recent publicity obtained indirectly. An alliance with the BNP might not be feasible. The BNP could have run this regime alone.
The temptation was too much? There is an indirect price for all concessions.
Hence the worst scenario is the gloomy picture that the BNP might face the same fate as the withered Awami League, which got only one fifth of the seats after reigning for five years. The BNP should learn its lessons from the AL debacle. Both the parties are in the same boat, waving the Charisma flags. The new gen are not impressed.
History cannot come of the pages and lead. Leadership is a real time job.
The BNP is obviously going for dynasty rule. How far this hunch would be fulfilled? There's many a slip between the cup and the lip. Sk. Hasina has complained (report in the press) that she now faces psychological barrier visiting the United States, after the campaign against the AL
on its foreign propaganda technique. The going will not be smooth for the BNP leading to the elections, as the party's feedback system is not scientific, based on reality. In fact, a large section of the informed voters have lost the appeal for going to the booths for casting the votes, as the voters have been sidelined by the business-men-politicians. The politics we see in Dhaka is not genuine politics, but pure business opportunism. Haram wealth has higher priority than genuine political agendas.
Look at the failure of the overhead pedestrian bridges (DS report Mar 6), and the underground passes near Gulistan and elsewhere. The useless Saarc beautification scheme. Hidden agendas: make money on the side through new projects. The launches sink due to poor regulation checks. The bomb probes leading nowhere. The JS living a widowed life. The misuse of the project motor vehicles by the seniors. The lucrative contracts after retirement from service. Non-transparent nepotism is not good politics.
What is the difference between the Secretariat and the PMO? Why the political secretary is shown in each and every TV news clip? The PMO is a new idea in political centralisation. Reduce the population in Dhaka metropolis, and get more votes.
Concentration or dilution of power does not work, so long the will is not there to operate public services in a transparent way. The political masters are not interested in daily routines in public administration, which are left to the bureaucracy (under threat of transfer to a third class station if ).
When there is no politics, the names BNP, AL do not matter. The way is clear for religious bigotry, encouraged by the spineless political leaders without vision or motivation, who depend more on the loudspeaker than on public opinion. Noise makers carry no messages.
The cynics won't be surprised if the elections were delayed due to unavoidable reasons?! AZ,Dhaka
