WEAR A BLACK BADGE
We all want free and fair elections.
It is widely agreed that neutrality of the Caretaker Administration and Election Commission is a pre-requisite for free and fair elections.
The Chief of the Caretaker Government, it appears is neither non-partisan nor neutral, and the conduct of the Election Commission has hitherto been shocking.
At the same time while many in the Nation agrees with the 14-party agenda in regards to securing free and fair elections, their destructive methods have precluded public participation on a mass scale.
Yet, we wish to participate in the destiny of Bangladesh. We want free and fair elections.
It is time that we the general public take a stand.
Back in 1969-71, wearing a small rectangular BLACK BADGE on the arm or chest became a powerful symbol of protest against the vile political machinations of the Pakistan Government. Virtually everybody wore it. The BLACK BADGE expressed the single-mindedness of the people in their quest for justice.
It is once again time that we the general public take a stand.
Starting November 20th, 2006 wear a BLACK BADGE on your arm or chest, or fly a BLACK FLAG on your roofs to protest against election engineering and also the violence that is being done in our name.
Free and Fair Elections is one of the basic entitlements we have as a citizen of this great nation. It is now upon us to protect it.

Dear Take Back Bagladesh

Dear Take Back Bangladesh,
For the lasy few months since all this craziness started, I often sat and wondered- what can I do to effect change? And will anything I do even make a difference and then I realised that, the very action of myself sitting and contemplating this is a good thing but its easy to sit back and whine and comment about the current situation but thats not enough; we need to take a stand!! It is not acceptable to sit back and say nothing.
I want to thank you guys for launching this campaign. I will activelu support you. I am planning to distribute printouts of the Black Badge in class today and ask students to support this campaign.
Its time to take things in our won hands.
Go Bangladesh
I Bashar
