Economy is complementary to state and politics. If you want to reform the state and politics in the formation of the country, first of all, you need to reform the economy. It is not possible to move forward without reforming the economy.

On Saturday (October 26) at noon, the Center for Governance Studies (CGS) organized a 'Dialogue for Democratic Reconstruction' at BIISS; The speakers said this in the dialogue titled 'Economic Policy Context'.

In the dialogue, the speakers said, the basis of our statistics is false. We have to get out of there. Statistics need to be fixed. Economic structure should be brought under automation. Diversity of export products should be increased. The scope of income tax should be increased. And of course these are not possible without political consensus. If we can create political consensus then we can solve other problems including inflation.

Munira Khan, chair of Center for Governance Studies (CGS), said how thousands of crores of money were smuggled out of the country, we must bring reforms here. Trafficking is still going on. When the media and banks say that 10 banks are weak, the people of those banks will withdraw money. He will either hide the money at home or smuggle it out of the country.

CGS executive director Zillur Rahman said that the crisis of trust was there during the previous government and is still there. The crisis of confidence must be overcome. Political stability is very important that comes into these discussions. If that is not ensured, economic stability will not come. Again, if there is no economic stability, the political crisis will not go away.

Former president of FBCCI. Jasim Uddin said, two things are completely killing us - one is banking good governance, the other is energy sector. Our policies must involve those who are concerned. We do policies where affiliates have no relationship. As a result, that policy is not realistic. It is not implemented.

President of Bangladesh Chamber of Industries (BCI) Anwar-ul Alam Chowdhury said, "Currently, none of us are at ease." We are going backwards from where we are. Industries are not getting gas. Industries are not protected. Who will we talk to? No one will be well if there is such uncertainty.

Dhaka Chamber of Commerce and Industries (DCCI) president Sabur Khan said that statistics are the key to development. I want all the statistics of the country to be correct. Our main problem is statistics. We give loans from banks but we don't see whether the person we are lending to has assets in his tax file. Everyone in the world has a credit rating but we don't.

Those who speak well are not needed. He added that people who can work without talking are needed.

Professor of Economics Department of Dhaka University. Rashed Al Mahmud Titumir said, our main problem is that industrialization is not happening. Our main employment is in the informal sector. We are not getting employment in the formal sector. We are not doing any work by showing the image of Professor Yunus.

Professor of Economics Department of Dhaka University. M. Abu Yusuf said, there are many big questions about the data of our GDP and population. First we need to fix the data. Then we can measure how much food will be needed. That's why we need to fix the information space.

Former NBR chairman Mohammad Abdul Mazid said that if there is no transparency in revenue collection, it will affect the overall product price including price inflation. We see that politicians have become bureaucrats and bureaucrats have become politicians. We have to get out of there. We have tariff commission here but they don't fix the price of anything, there also needs to be reformed.

President of BARVIDA Abdul Haque said, we have to think about whether we can make a cooperative society to control market inflation. Industrialized countries like Japan still have cooperatives. Bribes were taken in dollars. It has been kept in the vault of the bank. Many people have crores of money at home, measures should be taken to bring them to the bank.

Dhaka University Pro Vice Chancellor Professor Dr. Sayema ​​Haque Bidisha said that small and micro entrepreneurs should be brought under protection through government support. In many cases banks don't want to lend to them, even in that case we have to take policy decisions so that they get loans.

He said, in terms of employment, we still do not have any specific roadmap for less educated and highly educated youth. Industries should build relationships with highly educated unemployed people. Again we can help them in employment by creating economic zones in different parts of the country.

Prosenjit Chakma, the former resident representative of UNDP Bangladesh, said that not only should there be non-discrimination in the case of tribals, but there should be positive discrimination in their case. They should be brought under the safety net. Small entrepreneurs should be created among them. We need to involve them all with various help.

Shahidul Islam Zahid, professor of banking and insurance department of Dhaka University, said that we know all those who are defaulters on purpose, we have tried to keep them secret before, maybe we are still doing it. Legal action should be taken against them.

To revive the banks, public confidence must be restored. That is why we have to take measures to regularize the loans of those we have given loans to. Even if it is reduced, it should return to the bank regularly, he said.

Suprabha Sova Zaman, a student of Dhaka University's Department of Economics, said, We have to challenge crony capitalismNo matter how many reforms the interim government does, the reforms will be axed by whichever government comes to power if they do not go into the universal process.

BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir has returned home from Australia.

He arrived in Dhaka on a Singapore Airlines flight at 10:25 pm on Friday (October 25).

Earlier, on October 9, Mirza Fakhrul left Dhaka for Australia to meet his elder daughter Dr. Shamaruh Mirza and other relatives.

Before leaving, he said, "My elder daughter lives in Canberra, Australia. My wife (Rahat Ara Begum) has been with her elder daughter for the past one and a half months. I went there to give them some time. I hope to return home soon."

Mirza Fakhrul couple has two daughters. The elder daughter Dr. Shamaruh Mirza has been living in Australia with her husband and children since 2006. And the younger daughter Safaruh Mirza teaches at an English school in Dhaka.

BNP Standing Committee Member Begum Selima Rahman has demanded that Chhatra League not only be banned but they should be brought under the law.

She said, Chhatra League has machetes, pistols, and weapons. They will attack wherever they want. Therefore, they should be brought under the law. The most important thing is that Sheikh Hasina should be brought under the law first and she should also be tried.

She made these remarks as the chief guest at a discussion meeting at Dhaka Reporters Unity on Thursday (October 24). The discussion meeting titled ‘All conspiratorial false cases against BNP Chairperson Begum Khaleda Zia and future statesman Tarique Rahman should be cancelled by executive order’ was organized by the National Democratic Party.

Selima Rahman said, it is possible to withdraw the cases of BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia and acting Chairman Tarique Rahman, including all opposition party leaders and activists, through an executive order, but the interim government is not doing that. We are demanding the immediate withdrawal of the cases.

She said, "I have received some relief after the student-public movement. Are we at ease? It is true that we have emerged from a crisis, but we are still standing on the verge of exhaustion. The common people are not getting any relief today. The rise in commodity prices, the office siege program with demands, the friends of the fallen dictatorship are trying to destabilize the country as planned. The government should not be able to manage the country well, not be able to hold a good election.

Commenting that the fallen dictatorship government has created the ongoing crisis, she said, the friends of the fallen government are still alive in many places; they are trying to create an unstable environment. The dream of the student-public movement was to give people their rights back, their right to vote and basic rights. The syndicate of commodity prices must be broken.

Addressing the interim government, Selima Rahman said, "Those in the interim government are very good people. They are working, we are supporting them. But they have to understand that what is needed first must be done first." Not all reforms are possible. Only political parties elected by the people can run the country well.

Saluting the leaders and activists of the anti-discrimination movement, this BNP policymaker said, "You have to remember that you cannot destabilize the country by bringing any kind of political crisis. If your goal is for everyone to get their rights back, then you have to consult with the leaders and professionals of all political parties and try to move the country forward nicely."

Under the chairmanship of Nationalist Democratic Party Chairman SM Shahadat Hossain, BNP Chairperson's Advisor Zainul Abdin Faruk, Nationalist Like-Minded Alliance Coordinator and NPP Chairman Fariduzzaman Farhad also spoke.

The Awami League has called on the President to protect the country and the nation from unconstitutional and illegal evil forces.

The call was made in a statement sent by Awami League Deputy Office Secretary Sayem Khan on Wednesday (October 23) night.

The statement said that the Awami League believes that the country is going through a deep crisis and a period of extreme fatigue. The advisers of the unconstitutional and illegal so-called interim government are trying to overthrow the constitutional head of the state, the President. According to the constitution, the President is the head of all departments of the state. He is the symbol of the state's sovereignty - the commander-in-chief of the armed forces. During any interim period of the state, the President owns all the powers of the executive and legislative branches except the judicial power. Any attack on the President as the commander-in-chief of the armed forces is considered an attack on the entire armed forces, including the army.

Those who dared to make indecent statements against the President are committing the crime of treason, the Awami League said.

The statement also said that the President has appointed advisers to the interim government though their appointment has no constitutional and legal validity. In such a situation, according to constitutional practice, the President can cancel the appointment of those whom he appointed.

According to the constitution, Dr. Yunus was not sworn in, the statement said, stating that his appointment is completely unconstitutional and illegal. Therefore, Dr. Yunus has no legal and moral right to be in power. Therefore, Dr. Yunus should resign.

The ousted Awami League commented that there is no security for the lives and property of the people of the country.
