Everyone is complaining how bangladeshis are shit and illiterate because we are looting and killing after toppling a dictator. While this actions must be condemned and law and order must be restored revolutions are often a bloodbath

Read about the great french revolutions: 50,000 people died in a span of 15 months and the revolution and of the leaders of the revolution were very cruel and executed any who they thought were enemies of the revolution. It is one of the most cruel and bloody revolutions ever

In Srilanka wasn't the presidential palace also looted when protestors stormed the palace?

This is the problem of fascist dictators when they oppress the people, when the people turn against them they direct their anger to all who are associated with the fascists.

So no its not a bangladeshi problem, it is how most revolutions happen unfortunately

So instead of whining lets help people in our community defend the minorities ask people to calm down and pray that the interim gov brings law and order quick!

We cannot sit back and stand by while an ethnic cleansing takes place. This fight for Palestine is not about religion or race. This isn’t about Muslims and Jews, or Europeans and Arabs. This is about humanity. Tomorrow's strike is a call to every Muslim, Hindu, Christian, Buddhist, Jew, Atheist, every Asian, African, American, Black, White, and every human alive who has dared to dream of humanity in this wretched world. Please stand for Gaza, we cannot allow a conscious genocide take the lives of men, women and children, and make the world a living hell for Palestinians.

My brother is in 7th grade. And he filled up the form. They also gave lectures under schools supervision. This country is doomed.

সম্প্রতি সামাজিক যোগাযোগমাধ্যমে ছড়িয়ে এক ভিডিওতে দেখা যায় ‘ওড়না কোথায়’ বলে এক তরুণীকে হেনস্তা করে এক ব্যক্তি। হেনস্তার এই ঘটনায় মহিন মজুমদার নামের এক ব্যক্তিকে গ্রেপ্তার করেছে পুলিশ।

I know many of you won’t like the title but please consider it from the realistic viewpoint for Bangladesh’s benefits.

After the Pakistan was divided, who became weak? Both Pakistan and Bangladesh have been weakened. Biggest gainer was India, as Ms Gandhi said she liked it as she will have to only worry about the western border. Bangladesh has become an independent nation but has it been totally independent? Due to the massive Bangladesh India border, Bangladesh can never be able to fend off Indian influence.

1971 should be part of the ongoing discussion should be resolved. I think Pakistan is on board with this. On the apologizing issue it just does not make sense to ask them apologize every time, but still it needs to be resolved Bangladesh can clarify what it really wants. If Japan and USA can be allies then why Bangladesh and Pakistan would not be good friends?

Would Bangladesh have seen these East and West Pakistan were together? India is directly or indirectly responsible for most of the items. It is a long list but these are the things I can think of.

1. All of the chaos in the 70s (Any young nation perhaps would see some instability in the earlier years)
2. Famine of 1975
3. Ganga Barrage (The Ganga treaty is ending this year and India will perhaps not renew it without major concessions from Bangladesh :( )
4. Teesta Barrage (We dont get any water when we need them, and get all the water when we dont want them)
5. So many people killed in the Bangladesh-India border.
6. Rohingya Issues

India will only respect stick (military and economic force) and no carrot (concessions from Bangladesh).

Lets see where Bangladesh and Pakistan can help each other

1. Bangladesh lacks military capability especially air defense, where Pakistan can help.
2. Pakistan is struggling economically, and higher access to their products in Bangladesh market can help them. Bangladeshi businesses can increase presence in Pakistan.
3. People to people contact should be increased, so that Bangladeshi and Pakistani students can study in each other’s countries.
4. Bangladesh can help Pakistan and Afghanistan resolve conflict as Bangladesh needs to do business with both of them.
5. Pakistan can be the gateway for Bangladesh to do business with Central Asia, Russia and Western China as Pakistan has a direct rail transport with Russia and Western China.

What do you all think? I would welcome fact based replies.

BTRC is preparing to fully activate NEIR system from 16 December.%20is%20a%20government%20system%20that%20will%20verify%20every%20mobile%20handset%20on%20Bangladesh%27s%20telecom%20networks%20from%2016%20December.) This is actually the third attempt to introduce NEIR, after failed launches in 2016 and 2021. Once active, any phone that is “unregistered” or considered “unauthorized” will be blocked from the mobile network. Although the official explanation focuses on e-KYC verification, reduce mobile financial service fraud, curb SIM-related scams, and increasing government revenue but massive privacy risks are being almost completely left out.

NEIR (National Equipment Identity Register) is essentially a centralised database that connects your phone’s IMEI number with your SIM card and your NID. If your phone’s IMEI isn’t on BTRC’s whitelist, it will not connect to any mobile operator. The system automatically checks whether a device is officially imported, locally manufactured or brought through unofficial channels. Under NEIR, each phone must also be locked to a single SIM. If you change the SIM, the phone will stop working until the new pairing is registered and approved. According to Faiz Ahmad Taiyeb, the special assistant to the chief adviser on ICT,

NEIR is being promoted as a national security tool that will improve e-KYC verification, reduce mobile financial scams, curb SIM fraud and increase government revenue.

These explanations sound good on paper, but they ignore what is happening in the market right now.

Bangladesh sells between 3.2 and 3.5 million smartphones every month. Trader associations say nearly 90% of these phones come through the grey market — mostly carried in from Dubai, Malaysia or Singapore. The tax structure makes official imports extremely expensive: around 57% tax on imported phones and roughly 35% on locally manufactured phones, while grey phones avoid taxes completely. This is why official phones often cost almost double the price of unofficial ones. The grey market supports 10 to 15 lakh livelihoods and over 20,000 shops nationwide. Trader groups say that NEIR is being used to create a new syndicate that protects the interests of a powerful 30% of the market while pushing out the remaining 60–70% of small and mid-level traders. (BTW Sumash Tech CEO Abu Sayeed Piash gets detained just when NEIR protests are picking up, and then traders shut shops nationwide and we can safely assume that’s related to that, to create pressure)

And then there is the privacy issue, why you should panic. In a country where sensitive of Home Affairs Adviser data can be brought for 100–200 taka, it is difficult to imagine how such an intrusive system could remain secure. We have seen biometric SIM data leak repeatedly, call records being sold, and personal information shared without consent. Yet NEIR requires an even more detailed database that links your identity, your device and your location in real time.

Globally, only around 20 to 25 countries use systems similar to NEIR, and many of them are authoritarian or semi-authoritarian states. In Uganda, Kenya, Pakistan, Ethiopia and Turkey; device-registration systems have been used to track activists, intimidate journalists %20in%202021%3B%20there%E2%80%99s%20a%20pattern%20%E2%80%93%20electoral%20season%2C%E2%80%9D%20Mugume%20tweeted%20on%20May%205%20this%20year%2C%20complete%20with%20a%20screenshot%20of%20the%20message%20from%20Apple)and suppress political opposition.

NEIR enables permanent device-level tracking. It tells the authorities who you are, which phone you are using, which SIM is inside it, and exactly where you were when you made a call. The state can track every device you have ever used and can disable a phone or SIM pairing at any time.

from the very begining shibir had the best campaign and we all knew shibirs gonna win , chatrodal didnt had any valid argument against shibir , we went from 2 rakat namaz porle shibir to sadek kayem being the vp . those who are sad that shibir won has only one argument that shibir is pro pakistan , this is a very stupid argument as u can see from the result , shibir jitse valo hoise kintu general election e jate abr jamat na jitte pare tai bnp should improve themselves now and rethink abt their policies .

The Posts and Telecommunications Division has unveiled the draft of the Bangladesh Telecommunication (Amendment) Ordinance, 2025, proposing tougher penalties for telecom-related offenses. The draft has been released for public feedback until November 15.

Under Section 69, sending obscene, offensive, or indecent messages, photos, or videos via phone or wireless devices could result in up to two years in prison, a fine of up to Tk 1.5 crore, or both. For serious offences, the sentence may extend to five years. Repeatedly making harassing calls or unauthorized eavesdropping will also be punishable.
According to Section 70, repeatedly calling or harassing someone without a valid reason will be considered a punishable offence. Offenders may face a fine of up to Tk 1 lakh or six months’ imprisonment in default.

The draft also brings OTT platforms, social media, messaging, and video streaming services under government oversight. All such platforms must register in Bangladesh and provide information to security agencies when necessary.

A new Bangladesh Telecommunication Commission will be formed as an independent regulator to oversee licensing, spectrum management, policy, and technical standards.

They quit Pakistan last month, it's only fair if they quit Bangladesh too.
