Anarticle “Prayer to the new generation” written by the renowned writer Zafar Iqbal published in an online newspaper touches us. I really agree with his views. But when Muslims are tortured and murdered in Palestine, India and many other countries of the world we did not see any writing like this. And hoodlums/cadres murdered Biswajid and it is alleged that Sagor Runi were murdered by similar elements, Zafar Iqbal’s writings did not touch on those.Many girls students of Jahangir university were raped by cadres. Houses of Hindus were torched several times in the past when the incumbents were in power, there has been a blame game on this – those in the corridors of power putting the responsibility on ‘anti-Bangladesh’ forces and the opposition on the incumbents to shift people’s attention.
Moreover, the impression given as if war criminals are only in Jamaat and BNP? We hope he will also write against the big Cabinet for a tiny country wasting our poor people’s money, and also write about democracy and farcical election of 10th parliament election. Questions have been raised about some people taken as a cabinet member. Zafar Iqbal’s pen should be utilized to highlight those.
