Bangladesh under the Hasina-led traumatically tyrannical and transgressive Awamiregime is a story of disaster and damnation. The fraud and fascist regime, a lackey of Indianhegemonism and Hindutvaism, recklessly pursues a policy of death and destruction, atleast since 2009. The country used to be ruled with the same policy of elimination andannihilation during the time of her father Sheikh Mujib in 1972-1975 as well. The miserablecondition led to his unlamented death and dismissal, to the joy and relief of the people ofall walks of life, including his own Awami party and the armed forces. Now the situationunder his daughter Sheikh Hasina is much worse. She is at the top of an Indian puppetregime that is corrupt and criminal to the core making the great majority suffer in theongoing choking and suffocating circumstances of state terrorism. People live an utterlyinsecure and frightened life in a highly polarized police and prison state of chains andshackles, boots and bullets. torture and torment, bestial appetites, pervert humanintellect and endless malice against the political opposition. The regime’s brutalities knowno bounds; its persecution and prosecution of dissent are unlimited; its foot soldiers aredeadlier than anything. They and their partisan police and RAB are brazenly emblazonedfigures of the seven deadly sins, just as their Hindutva cult following leader Hasina, dubbedby critics as ‘Mother of Mafias,’ is an illiberal embodiment of all mischiefs and misdeeds. Afascist dictator, she is a tigress in human form, hungry for humongous accumulation ofautocratic and authoritarian power and control at the expense of freedom, independence,sovereignty, and human rights. A viciously vindictive tyrant, again, backed by thefanatical and fundamentalist Hindu nationalist India, Hasina enjoys innocent adversariesliquidated; massacres committed; innocent people gunned down; politicians, intellectualsand journalists arrested, remanded, tortured, thrown behind bars, and even hanged;opposition members detained or disappeared; houses and neighborhoods set on fire;religious festivities violently tainted; desecration of holy books exploited and flames ofcommunal fires fanned for gaining political mileage; women and children raped; banksand billions looted; and the poor committing suicide or dying of hunger. In the nameof development, mostly fake and fictitious, and dented and demented, floodgates tocorruption are opened, mega millions stolen, democracy killed, opposition suppressed,elections rigged, drugs made available in plenty, institutions left to collapse, education tofail, professionalism in professions going down the drains, transparency and accountabilitygoing to the dogs, and thus Pandora’s box of ills and evils continuing to be released withno stop in sight.
