The poet’s rhyme is eternally true. Hope is the only last hope in our miserable family life. In the developed world, the basic responsibility of every citizen rests with the government. The government is changeable, but the state bears the risk of fulfilling every basic need of the people’s life. This is the clear difference between the developed world and developing and underdeveloped countries like ours. Where our future destination is uncertain, we often compare it with the quality of life of the people of the Western world, which is actually ridiculous.
A nation that was economically fragile was forced to cross a difficult path of 55 years by only political people who showed dreams from time to time, but still there is no successful end to the dream, but only the destination of a craggy of nightmares. The dream-loving nation has been made to face times that are more difficult and realities by the dream hawkers who tell the stories of dreams from time to time. The dream-seeking hawkers also knew that whenever the dream-loving nation’s dreams fade, it will turn around, from protesting to revolutionary, but the reality is that even if the hawkers change, the successful implementation of dreams remains elusive. Have we ever thought that to keep the nation on its specific path, our children need to combine real family behavior and institutional educations? We started the journey of education in international languages without giving them valuable books like ‘Adarsha Lipi’ or ‘Balya Shiksha’, with the desire to be educated in foreign education, without emphasizing the mother tongue. As a result, children were not educated in either native or foreign languages. We did not give space to our minds and thoughts about how much a child needed the words “Asaat Sangha Tyag Kara” and “Alasya Dosher Akar” in the Adarsha Lipi. As a result, the knowledge received from children is a big gap in fulfilling the expectations of parents. We saw the mass uprising of the 90’s we also saw how President H.M Ershad was imprisoned for almost 6.5 years due to errors and corruption in his state management. We saw the multi-dimensional picture of the imprisonment of the top leaders of the two main political parties in 2006. We have seen the cruel reality of nature worldwide, the nightmare of Covid. We have lost our loved ones prematurely but have we learned any lessons from nature? Former president H.M Ershad brought in Dr. Wahidul Haque, a professor of economics from a foreign university from the Western world to accelerate the country’s economy. I have also seen the former fallen Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina give ministerial status to several apolitical wise and experienced people in the Council of Ministers and Advisory Councils, but the situation has not improved much. Because as a nation we have not been taught principles, ethics and patriotism, but rather we have joined the competition of corruption, terror, nepotism, bribery and unethical functions. Without thinking about the country and the people of the country, we have sown the seeds of bureaucracy and dictatorship in the guise of democracy. By replacing businessmen, cultural workers, retired army officers, police officers and bureaucrats in politics, we have gradually made the path of politics inaccessible to the people. We have taken all the advice of non-political people to uproot college-university politics, which is known as the breeding ground for political leaders. As a result, the old-fashioned, the alienated and the corrupt took their place in the front row of the always familiar places of politics. All the blood-sucking groups of non-political, businessmen and bureaucrats, whose wickedness and lobbying and party division had made politics lose its true form, have lost their true form. Will politics return to its original form or continue in the old way, is still a question for the people? One of the reasons why the student-people’s revolution of July turned into a universal revolution was the expectation of a return to the people in the form of politics. For this reason, to enhance the democratic values of the people and to get rid of the black hole  of past political leaders, the common people took to the field against the fallen government. The main goal of the return to politics was to establish the democratic rights of the people of the country. Therefore, Nobel laureate Dr. Muhammad Yunus was appointed as the head of the interim government and a new government was formed under his leadership consisting of famous and expert people scattered around the world. In this case, the level of people’s expectations for Dr. Muhammad Yunus’ leadership was unusual. Although Dr. Muhammad Yunus formed a government consisting of experts working in USA and the Western world, the prediction of the complete failure of the people and the revolutionary group supporting this government to demonstrate their work skills in the last one year has already been clear.
Professor Dr. Ali Riaz, Mr. Ashiq Chowdhury, Dr. Khalilur Rahman, renowned educationists and intellectuals like them, spent their entire lives learning and practicing foreign cultures and showing the nation a ray of hope in building an unknown culture of
their own country. But they never thought that the matter was not as easy as it was thought because in nation building, it is first necessary to have a proper idea about the hopes and aspirations of the nation, acquire the necessary practice and knowledge and
then start the reconstruction. However, without any idea, practice and acquisition of necessary knowledge, they wanted to prove themselves worthy to the nation and become dream charioteers. They showed courage like throwing away the existing constitution and writing a new constitution. They were able to bring foreign investors, businesspersons and entrepreneurs and take the nation into a fairy tale world of billions of dollars of foreign investment for a term but the feedback or disinterest of foreign institutions has already proven that dreams and reality are not the same. It is true, although it is unpopular, so far the nation’s censors have not caught even a hint of revival or renaissance in the field of industry or investment. Meanwhile, in the name of solving the Rohingya issue, the UN Secretary-General has brought the man wearing a coat and tie to Bangladesh and has caused a new influx of hundreds of thousands of Rohingyas, misleading the nation. In addition, he has continued his utmost efforts to disrupt regional geopolitics and stability by handing over Chittagong Port and Cox’s Bazar to US imperialism. At various times, when treasonous statements like changing the map come to the media from the highest persons of the government, instead of being known as a heroic nation standing tall in the world, the nation has lost courage due to the anxiety of an aimless destination. U.S conspiracies and interference in the geopolitics of China, India, and Myanmar are gradually becoming clear to the nation. On the other hand, the nation has revolutionized in the hope of a new day, but the real solution to all those basic issues is wavering in despair. The revolutionaries and the common people do not know when the problem will be solved & how will it be solved? Moreover, the uncertain future of these basic issues is clearly signaling the nation’s fear of returning to the path of movement. The nation and some political parties are still asleep about the equation of the results of the DUCSU and JUCSU elections. The big political parties of the country are afraid that the ambiguous equation of the DUCSU and JUCSU elections will affect the next national parliament elections, and the unmistakable signs of expectations and achievements are clear. All the calculations and equations of the so-called political think tanks have changed. The basic elements of democracy, the national election, the amendment of the constitution, the adoption of the July Charter, the addition of the PR system, above all, the behavior of Islamic political parties has put the nation on the path of an unknown fear. The students and the people’s revolution in the country was based on them, but in the post-revolutionary country, the nation is today moving towards an unknown goal with an aimless destination, the result of which is uncertain, there is no doubt about it.
