When India has abruptly imposed a ban on its onion exports to Bangladesh, our lackey rulers have come to rescue the image of this mushrik enemy by acting as her mouthpiece. Instead of even pretending to criticize India, the grossly incompetent Foreign Minister AK Abdul Momen was quick to defend India, stating that Indian External Affairs Ministry is very “repentant” for not informing Bangladesh beforehand about the ban!

People of Bangladesh are appalled by Hasina government’s repulsive decision to observe a day of ‘state mourning’ in Bangladesh on September 2 over the death of Pranab Mukherjee, former President of India. Expressing her deepest grief, Sheikh Hasina termed him a ‘true friend’ of Bangladesh.

Recently, an article titled “Sheikh Hasina did not meet Indian envoy despite requests: Dhaka Daily”, published by a prominent Indian newspaper, The Hindu, has created too much hype within the political and intellectual arenas of Bangladesh as it quoted several incidents to reflect signs of strained relations between Dhaka and New Delhi.

Just when the economy has been devastated and millions of worker have become unemployed due to blindly following the erroneous policies of the West by implementing prolonged nationwide lockdown in dealing with Covid-19, Sheikh Hasina’s treacherous regime has hammered the final nail in the coffin of the highly promising jute industry of Bangladesh with the decision to shut down all the State-owned jute mills and laying off 25,000 workers.
