    Sheikh Hasina’s Awami League is not a democratic political party, and there is no freedom of speech. It is an organization of Faridpur, Barisal “limited company”. Nationally, Bangladeshi citizens need to resist each and every “Faridpuira Bhumidosshu’ (land grabber from Faridpur) and “Barisailla Jalodosshu”(Pirates from Barisal). They are using the political platform as a shelter for their criminal activities. Most of the criminals are either from the greater district of Faridpur or from the greater district of Barisal and the police officers are also posted in each and every police station in Dhaka either from Faridpur or from Barisal.

And now Sheikh Hasina is also nominating and selecting MP’s from Dhaka, who are not from greater Dhaka, thru her corrupted system of so called “election commission”. It is about time to kick her out and send her back to Gopalgonj, where she has come from.
