We are snubbed when we want to speak out

 
Eminent human rights organizer and former adviser to caretaker government Sultana Kamal said, "We are snubbed when we want to speak out. Not just Sheikh Fazle Noor Taposh, there are many other people who talk like that."

Sultana Kamal made the above remarks on Monday while addressing a program in the capital's Krishibid Institution. It was organized by Nagorik Platform.
Sultana Kamal said, "I am very affectionate to Mayor Taposh. He belongs to my constituency. When we went to him to talk about saving the environment, he said that he would drown if anyone speaks much."

Sultana Kamal stated that political sincerity is required to work for the betterment of underprivileged communities. "Where are such politicians now?" Sultana Kamal questioned.Sultana Kamal further said that political problems cannot be resolved if public representatives are not deeply associated with people. "Those who say that they believe in the spirit of the Liberation War of 1971 must prove it" Sultana Kamal asserted.

The program was also attended by Chairman of Center for Policy Dialogue (CPD) Professor Rehman Sobhan, Bangla Academy President Selina Hossain, renowned actor and playwright Mamunur Rashid, former Justice Md. Abdul Matin, CPD Distinguished Fellow Mostafizur Rahman among others.
