“Faking freedom fighter identity” (Nov. 1, 2014)

These frauds who do not have an iota of ethics or morality must be punished. They are second-degree war criminals as they have looted benefits due to freedom fighters. Many real freedom fighters did not ever claim any benefits.

“Date with darkness” (Nov. 2, 2014)

Blackouts happen in developed countries also due to unknown reasons, but they are usually corrected after two hours. Whatever the reason may be, it is not acceptable in this age to have a blackout for 12 hours or more. It is most ironic that this blackout occurred due to overload of electricity. The computer system sensed the overload and started closing one power station after another and never stopped.

Such horrendous situation had never been experienced by Bangladesh before. Why did such a nationwide disaster happen? What were the shortcomings or technical hitch, or serious lack of maintenance, or sabotage, etc? I hope an investigation would be done for the future safety and to 'plug the leak.'
