A recent column by Minar Rashid in *Amar Desh* highlights three major issues in Bangladesh’s political culture. The writer describes a recent incident at Dhaka University where the Prime Minister was surrounded by students during a visit, calling it a dangerous breach of security despite being an expression of affection. He argues that such emotional crowds can endanger national stability and that security advisers must strictly enforce safety protocols.
The column also critiques a new wave of enthusiasm for Rabindranath Tagore among BNP leaders, calling it excessive and inconsistent with the party’s traditionally balanced approach to culture and religion. The writer contrasts Tagore’s romantic but unsuccessful agricultural ideas with former president Ziaur Rahman’s pragmatic agricultural reforms, urging BNP leaders to follow their founder’s model instead of symbolic cultural gestures.
Finally, the piece discusses the current state of student politics, warning against calls for its total ban. It advocates for reform through strict codes of conduct, zero tolerance for violence, and regular student union elections to restore intellectual and democratic values in campus politics.
