"Tata, Bye Bye - Yunus" - this is the hushed message within the corridors of GanaBhavan (Dhaka). 1. An emissary (a minister) of the UK govt quietly made a trip to Dhaka, - apparently to read the riot act to Yunus. 2. Following which BD Security Advisor Khalilur Rahaman made a quiet trip to...

I have a simple pooch: Why doesn’t our MHA flash the newspapers from time to time reeling citizens to report any sign of terror activities? Moser importantly, declare that actionable intelligence which can lead to conviction can fetch rewards (say, Rs. 1 lakh). The peace-fool community itself will d...

The Great Khan is very upset with Yunus, and apparently trying to get rid of him. The frequent visits to China by BD delegations have irked Khan to no end. The new ambassador designate Brent Christensen’s senate hearing this issue came up significantly. Khan is very worried because Yunus govt has hu...

Before the fall of Hasina govt., she made GoI very upset by her arrogance and trying to “run with the hare and hunt with the hound” attitude. The only positive thing she did was not to allow NE secessionists find a foothold on BD soil. But in return she extracted many more benefits to much discomfit...

The interview has caused quite a stir in the BD intellectual circles. I find (from my own sources) that general perception among the intellectual circles is turning in favor of AL / Hasina. They are tired of the utter chaos, and now think that Hasina’s iron fist was much better.

Chetak-Saar, Agree with you. But, just like releasing fish in a new aquarium one tests the water to check its suitability, similarly the political water is being tested now. . . .

There is some chatter that the inhabitant of Safed Makaan has given Haara Batti to bring Hasina back. (Some are claiming that MR has conveyed this to SJ.) Yesterday there was a big show of strength by AL in Dhaka.

A drama is unfolding in Dhaka today. 15 army officers have been taken into custody under the direction of International War Crime Tribunal for killing and torturing civilians before the fall of Hasina govt last August. This has created a sharp division not only within the armed forces but also in th...

Some BD sources (with pro-Desi slant) are now giving a different news now. They are saying that behind all the current China-Pak instigation to reconstruction of Lalmonirhat airforce base - which is actually a smokescreen - it is actually unkil who is setting up a powerful radar station there.

Why would Unkil SF— if siding with the Jamaatis— help the Arakan Army?

True, Chetak-Sir. It has been discussed that his LinkedIn page had all the details. So many people are questioning if he had been sent on a mission then why would he gave away all the details.
