Yunus, the last hope amid hundreds crisis

# Pressure starts from the political arena for elections

# Dream of students is elusive in this administration 

# People are still angry with the police, reforms are underway

# Reform of election commission, judiciary, administration

# Yunus in leadership with dilapidated state in all sectors

# Political parties say Hasina's administration will fail reforms

 

 

After the victory of the bloodshed of the student masses, Dr. Muhammad Yunus is leading the revolutionary government. He has presented a new Bangladesh on the world stage.

After taking responsibility of the country, the Yunus-led government is under multi-faceted pressure. Especially from the political parties of the country, who initially talked about helping the interim government, but creating pressure for the roadmap of the election.

On the other hand, the judiciary, administration, police department, educational institutions, healthcare institutions and other sectors are also struggling to work in the destruction and anarchy of the Hasina government. Especially those who are currently in law and order and administration are alleged to be allies of Awami League (AL) for the last 15 years.

Political analysts said that it is not possible to implement the dreams of the students in any way with the manpower of this large administration that was set by former prime minister Sheikh Hasina.

In the meantime, there have been demands from the grassroots level that people are not willing to accept the police well without police reform. Police and RAB have been involved in hundreds of thousands of murders in the last 15 years. BGB is involved in smuggling on the border. And the demand is emerging from the country's political arena along with the government fearing that Hasina's followers can stage a coup at any time.

Before fleeing to India, the Hasina government had enslaved the country by borrowing huge sums from the domestic banking system and foreign sources. In such a situation, Dr. Muhammad Yunus has to lead in this wound out state.

Political insiders said that Nobel laureate Dr. Yunus has taken Bangladesh to a new height in a short time. He has conveyed the history of bloodshed to world leaders. The whole world is now keeping a serious eye on Bangladesh because of Dr. Yunus. The people of the country want the reform work to be completed by an acceptable and respected person.

Dr. Yunus has also left his leadership and time to the people of the country. His government has said that elections will be held whenever the people of the country want. And he also said that when his government announces when the election will be held, it will be the final announcement. At a recent event, Chief Adviser Dr. Muhammad Yunus said that the interim government will hold elections in the country by carrying out necessary reforms in various state institutions. A free, fair and participatory election will be held after carrying out necessary reforms in the Election Commission, judiciary, civil administration, security forces and media.

Zahid Hussain, former chief economist of the World Bank's Dhaka office, said it will take some time to recover from the way various institutions and individuals have corrupted the country in the last 15 years. Dr. Muhammad Yunus has been in charge for a very short time. In some places, especially financial advisers, education and energy, Bangladesh Bank, some posts have been good. It is difficult to break the entire previous ring in a short time or it is difficult to place the right person in the vacancy. But I am hopeful that Bangladesh will move in the right direction by correcting some mistakes under the present leadership.

Senior journalist and political analyst Masud Kamal said that the police or RAB have helped them the most to sustain Sheikh Hasina's 15-year autocratic rule. The political affiliation of the family has been tested in such a way that families other than AL have no right to enter these forces in this country. But those identified party children have spread roots far and wide in these 15 years. To maintain law and order, the government will have to rely on those appointees on party considerations, the same can be said about the bureaucracy. But it must be accepted that a revolutionary government can never run with the bureaucracy and administration of autocracy. 

Jamaat-e-Islami's Ameer Shafiqur Rahman has recently said that the current interim government should be ousted with dignity by holding an acceptable election within a reasonable time after discussing with all stakeholders, including political parties. Because if you delay for years, weeds can grow, chaos can arise, a third force can arise. However, at the outset, he said his party would give the government reasonable time until it was reformed.

Nationalist Democratic Movement (NDM) chairman Bobby Hajjaj said the interim government's comments on the election had created confusion. The essence of revolution and reform is the reflection of the will of the people. And there is no alternative to the national parliament election. But the current interim government is creating mystery about the election. Various comments from the government on the roadmap for the election have created confusion in the minds of the people. The press secretary of the chief adviser said at an official press conference yesterday that the people of the country will decide when the election will be held. Our question is, will the people have to take to the streets again to demand elections? People's verdict will be known only if a fair election is held.

BNP senior joint secretary general Ruhul Kabir Rizvi has alleged that many officials of the fascist Hasina government are still trying to create chaos in various ways. If there are people in the administration who helped plunder fascism during Sheikh Hasina's 15-16 years in power, they can never support a revolutionary government. If they are cabinet secretaries, secretaries, sitting in important offices, then the reforms that are being talked about in the Election Commission, judiciary and other sectors will not be implemented. They will thwart reform.
