Like everyone else, I am also drawn to chatter. Sometimes I just want a storm in a cup of tea. Whether it is politics or literature. I was talking to a senior leader of Awami League. We were talking about the current political and economic situation. Another colleague of mine was also at the table. We discussed about whether or not BNP will participate in the next election.

It is the year 2006, the end of term Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) and Jammat-e-Islami’s all i a n c e government and the beginning of a military backed caretaker government for 2 years.

Although the word 'freedom' is popular, it is not easy to achieve it. Bangladesh is one of the few countries in the world that has become independent by fighting. The victory of Bengal was achieved in return for many sacrifices. This victory has been achieved in exchange of many sacrifices, blood, pain of losing relatives and sacrifice of women. There is a collection of events, personal emotions and multidimensional events. Today I will describe one of the incidents. Read More...

At least 38 passengers were burned dead as a devastating fire broke out in a launch named "MV OVijan-10" on Sugandha river of Jhalokathi district early Friday.

When the Omicron variant was discovered, many countries promptly implemented travel restrictions and other public health precautions, such as mandatory mask-wearing. Is this, however, the right course of action given the absence of data? These measures come at a price, and some have contended that they are excessive.

At a time when we are witnessing a trend of deteriorating security and political situations, more than 87,000 peacekeepers from over 120 countries are helping save lives, preventing conflict, and creating conditions for lasting peace. And they are doing so while increasingly coming under attack.

This includes the Member States, the Security Council, General Assembly, host countries, and regional and international organizations -- all of whom have the unique ability to shape our response in some of the world’s most complex settings.

Fuel prices have been falling on the worldwide market since mid-November. Experts believe that an increase in fuel prices in the international market is unlikely.
