Civil unity president Mahmudur Rahman Manna has raised the question of how a fair election will be held if the Mob is not going to stop the way in the country. He spoke at a seminar titled 'Cyber Protection Ordinance 2021 – how much protection' was organized at Dhaka Reporters' Unit on Saturday (July 7th).
Mahmudur Rahman Manna, president of civil unity, said, “There is no way to show faces in front of people in the name of elections in the three terms. Our honor is lost to the world. If this government can make good elections, the honor of the country will be saved. However, in Patgram, Brahmanbaria, Barisal, how can a fair election happen if the Mob is going on?
Manna said, 'There is so much talk about reform. If I ask – “Say, brother, what reform has this government?” – The government cannot say. Saying that the discussion is not over, the consensus has not developed – then he did nothing in a year. '
He said, “I used to go regularly at the meeting of the consensus, now it seems that there is no profit. In many issues there have been disagreements that I do not know how to settle. If there is no consensus, Professor Yunus says, do not impose anything. So how will the reform be? Can't do anything in a year. If the big team or medium team objected, you can not go there. The biggest reform in this situation is a good election. '
“We are objecting to the cyber protection ordinance,” he added. Those who spoke at this seminar today represent almost all the political voices in Bangladesh, they are all objecting to it. There is still time that the ordinance has done, correct it. If you do not, you can go, but it will be fixed later. '
The president of civic unity said, 'Let's talk about the police – if they see any wrongdoing of civil unity, they will immediately capture. But if the BNP does the way – is it, or not? Will there be a job after six months? Who will be in power then? I don't say it to promote it. Now I am not seeing so much rival in front of the BNP. Many will stand, I can stand too. But I'm not saying I will stand against them or against them. Some say they will stand. But if the administration thinks that they will go to power, they will start giving them salute from then on. '
BNP standing committee member Nazrul Islam Khan said, “The new cyber protection ordinance has said that those who were punished for some crimes in the past will be released and the punishment will be canceled. But at the same time, the law has been re -kept in the law that will be arrested and punished again on the same complaint in the future. What could be better than this? '
He added, 'There were many labor laws in our country. In the 21st, a single law was enacted in combination with those laws. If you read this law, it would seem that it is fairly good. But if you are implemented, you will get a lot of trouble. The Labor Act states that every worker has to give appointment. But only 20 to 20 percent of the working people in Bangladesh get employment. The rest of the workers have no specific job conditions, no Old Age Benefits, no leave or other benefits – which is clearly written in the labor law. Although the minimum wage of the farmers is noted, it does not take care of it. If the wages are low, there is no mechanism to charges or punish the lesser people. '
Speaking at the seminar, Bazlur Rashid Feroz, general secretary of the Socialist Party (Basad) of Bangladesh, Nazmul Haque chief of Bangladesh Jassad, Fahim Mashroor, vice-convener of Voice for Reform.
