‘Mujib’s failure brings Zia in politics’

LONDON: BNP senior vice-chairman Tarique Rahman said ‘killing’ of democracy’ and ‘extreme failure of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman’ had brought BNP’s founder Ziaur Rahman in politics.
“Mujibur’s own party Awami League strangled democracy to death and there were no alternative except Zia to come to politics for the existence of Bangladesh,” said the BNP leader, who is now in a ‘self-exile’ in London.
Tarique came up with the remarks while addressing a function to mark the 33rd death anniversary of BNP’s founder Ziaur Rahman as the chief guest in London.
During his hour-long speech, Tarique castigated Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman and Prime Minster Sheikh Hasina.
“The rules of Sheikh Mujib and Sheikh Hasina have varied similarities in corruption and misruling,” he said.
Comparing the Jatiyo Rakkhi Bahini to the RAB, Tarique said “Rakkhi Bahini was a name of horror during the post-independence era of Sheikh Mujib; and, in his (Mujib) daughter’s tenure, RAB has appeared like that horror.”
The BNP’s self-exiled leader again termed Mijub-led first government illegal.
Citing the incumbent government illegal, Tarique urged all to begin united anti-government movement under the leadership of his mother, BNP chairperson Khaleda Zia.
He also termed the January 5 polls as a voter-less one and criticized the present Election Commission (EC).
“This EC is biased and backboneless” said Tarique.
The UK unit of BNP organized the function at a banqueting hall at Alford in greater London.
Tarique also inaugurated the signature campaign demanding RAB’s disbanding there.
Professor Dr KM Malek of Cardiff University, BNP UK unit acting president Mian Monirul Alam and Bogra BNP president VP Saiful Islam, among others, spoke at the function.
Local BNP unit president Choudhury Kuddus and general secretary Kaisar M Ahmed jointly moderated the programme.
Tarique was seen sitting on the audience line throughout the function except when he delivered the speech and welcomed the audience awhile as the chief guest at the beginning of the programme.

Reason behind KKR turnaround

Shakib Al Hasan

DHAKA: At one point this IPL season, Kolkata Knight Riders were reeling -- they had lost five of their seven matches and even though it was early in the season, it looked like they had already blown their chance of making the playoffs.
But just when it seemed like there was no rescuing them, they rose from the ashes and scripted an amazing turnaround with five consecutive wins. They sit second in the table now and need to win two games to win title.
Most of the credit goes to the team management; they spotted the weak areas and followed up with some brave decisions which played a major part in the turnaround. Here are some reasons behind KKR's brilliant turnaround this season:
Jacques Kallis is a cricketing legend, one of the best all-rounders in the game. It's difficult to drop a player of the stature of Kallis.
But the KKR team managed showed a lot of courage in dropping the South African all-rounder. Kallis was having a mediocre tournament, he had scored just 151 runs from seven innings at 25.16 with a strike rate of 117.05. He wasn't quite effective in the bowling department too, averaging 46.50 and going for 8.45 runs an over with just four wickets from eight matches.
Dropping Kallis meant that Shakib Al Hasan got a chance to play consistently. The Bangladesh all-rounder has proved his worth to the team with some crucial all-round performances.
In the last match against CSK, he was promoted up the order at number four, he strode at the crease with KKR needing 57 from 50 balls and just killed of the match with a breathtaking 46* off 21 balls.
KKR won the match with two overs to spare. His big hitting abilities coupled with his disciplined bowling make him a must-have player in the starting eleven.
Shakib has so far scored 197 runs from 11 innings and his strike rate is way better than Kallis.
In the bowling department too, he has preformed really well with 10 wickets from 11 matches with a moderate economy rate.
Shakib, Narine and Piyush Chawla are top three wicket takers of the team while Shakib is considered most valuable all rounder.
The team management has also made some brave decision with regards to the batting order which have proved to be fruitful. Yusuf Pathan was going through a rough phase, the team management promoted him to number four against Mumbai at Cuttack.
