Finally came to a place. Before we who were the victims only screamed. Journalists are many victims, some of their writings were printed, some writings were not printed. Today the entire issue has admitted that there is no place for independent journalism in Bangladesh.

There is no doubt about it. It’s not just me. It has become everyone’s talk. There will never be acceptable and fair elections under the current government.

Regarding the visa policy, he said that many people in the ruling party are enjoying it. They say that the visa policy did not mention participatory elections. What a strange logic! They are happy, they say participatory elections are not discussed. But our constitution will not be acceptable without participatory elections. They have to be fought against, defeated.

After 50-52 years, Mirza Fakhrul said that more remittances are coming from the United States. But those who live in the United States never come and invest in the country. don’t invest If necessary, they sell the houses here. Now coming back! Why? who stole Those who have smuggled thousands of crores of rupees. They are bringing them to the country in the form of remittances. It is announced to give them two and a half percent incentives.

There is no use in fear now Mirza Fakhrul said warning, there is no use in fear. Now we have to come out because of survival because of existence. Conquer the fear, defeat them. Democratic governance should be established. Where journalists can write. There will be no digital security laws. Where journalists will not be arrested with false cases.
