"Standing on this very soil of Gopalganj, we declare: break down and burn down the den of Mujib's legacy. Long live revolution."
Chief Adviser GOB, you must make one thing absolutely clear: do you support young citizens in 'breaking down and burning down' the final resting place of someone? And that very individual is in fact, very dear to the people of Gopalganj, that specific area. There's also no denying that Sheikh Mujibur Rahman was an integral part of Bangladesh's independence.
So, if you are confidently saying 'there is no place for such violence in Bangladesh, then you must act to ensure no one engages in any such act that provokes violence.
The four people who lost their lives yesterday will not resurrect because of the rhetoric of a few over-enthused 'young citizens'. Their families will be scarred forever.
So, when you say violence has no place in the nation and such brutality will face justice, ensure you act without any bias.
Remember, the world is watching? Some of us are aware of your ambition to enter the race for the next UN Secretary-General. So, play it safe while you can.
