December, one of the important month for the people of Bangladesh. We have achieved our independence in this month and became citizen of a free country from misrule of Pakistan. The crucial factor that led us to freedom fight is huge discrimination between East Pakistan(now Bangladesh) and West Pakistan(Pakistan). In all spheres of life Pakistani used Bangladesh as a colony. We were as colonial rule of British from 1947-1971. The bitter experience of Bangladeshis motivated them to take arms against Pakistan in 1971. After 9 months long bloodshed war we got our independence in 16th December,1971. We thought our national aspiration will be materialized but still that is far a way of our expectation. The successive regimes many a times failed to understand the demand of the common people. The qualitative change of a country mostly depends on the leaders who committed, honest and have integrity to their just work but we severely lack it. There is a common perception among the people that Bangladeshi politicians have made politics into business. The ultimate aim of business is to get profit when state authority works with business then the right of common people get injured though the main duty of politicians are to protect the interest of the countrymen. The December reminds us that we need good people to work in the sphere of government and by taking pragmatic policies they will curb the tempo of discrimination. The economic disparity will go down, people will enjoy peaceful normal life in society by keeping full confidence in leaders. The people who want to lead Bangladesh should have a self-assessment of their own whether they are competent enough to lead a country like ours. There is a statement in political science that"Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty."If voters are reluctant and passive repeatedly they will be looser in getting right. May Allah bless all to understand and do not include us among the wrong doing people.
