DEVELOPMENT DILEMMAS Latest Issue
In this edition of Development Dilemmas, we talk to Nurul Kabir, the editor of New Age, Dhaka about the current situation in Bangladesh where the military backed government plans to hold elections on December 18. Bangladesh has been under a state of emergency since January 2007. The army imposed heavy civil restrictions in what they claimed was a bid to curtail violence that resulted from political turmoil between the two major political parties, the Bangladesh National Party or BNP and the Awami League. The army claimed it wants a return to democracy... but civil rights groups say unaccounted arrests, torture and extra judicial killings have increased in the period. The situation has turned even more uncertain with both the BNP and the Awami League announcing that they would boycott elections unless emergency is lifted. Sanjay Barbora, Programme Manager-Conflict at Panos South Asia moderates this discussion. (30:00)
