Dialogue enters critical stage
The one-on-one dialogue between BNP Secretary General Abdul Mannan Bhuiyan and BAL General Secretary Abdul Jalil is on. Both hoped for arriving at a consensus and for an amicable settlement of the dispute over different proposals related to Electoral Reforms & Caretaker Govt. I think this dialogue reflects the wish of the masses. But sometimes we are too negatively affected by the irresponsible statements of the chiefs of these two parties. Sk. Hasina said, "There is no scope to compromise in the ongoing dialogue." On the other hand, Khaleda Zia said, "No amendment will be done in the constitution and they are not compelled to work according to AL's whims." Besides, they are threatening each other verbally. Furthermore, these two leaders went abroad whereas at home no solution is still in sight. Their absence has delayed the negotiation and may even lead to a deadlock. Yet we think their tolerance, patience and consensus are a must for the next election. Now we are awaiting the dialogue result.
