Question

Read the following passage and answer the questions given below :

Muhammad Yunus is a famous economist of Bangladesh. He received several international honours for his efforts to promote economic and social deveIOpment for the benefit of the poor. He and the Grameen Bank he started jointly, received the Nobel Peace Prize for the 2006. In February 2007, he decided to launch a political party and contest in the parliamentary elections. His objective was to foster proper leadership, good governance and build a new Bangladesh. He felt that only a political party different from the traditional ones would bring about new political culture. His party would be democratic from the grassroots level.

The launching of the new party, called Nagarik Shakti (Citizens’ Power), has caused a stir among the Bangladeshis. While many welcomed his decision, some did not like it. “Now I think Bangladesh will have a chance to choose between good and bad and eventually have a good government”, said Shahedul Islam, a government official.“That government, we hope, would not only keep itself away from corruption but also make fighting corruption and black money a top priority.”

But leaders of traditional political parties who dominated the country’s politics for decades were apprehensive. “There was no debate (over him) winning the Nobel, but politics is different- very challenging and often controversial”, said a senior leader of the Bangladesh Nationalist Party. Some others were highly critical. They asked why he was rushing into politics. “Is he being planted in politics by mentors from outside the country”, asked one political observer.

(a) Do you think Yunus made a right decision to float a new political party ?

(b) Do you agree with the statements and fears expressed by various people ?

(c) How do you want this new party organised to make it different from other parties ?

(d) If you were the one to begin this political party how would you defend it ?

⭐⭐<==================>⭐⭐



(a) Yunus made a right decision to float a new political party because in a democracy every citizen has a right to form political party or join a political party of his own choice. There is nothing wrong in it. Secondly, Yunus is a Nobel Peace Prize winner and is known in Bangladesh as well as by people all over the world. He has his own political ideas. He has set an example by setting up the Grameen Bank in Bangladesh. People may support him and enable him to form a good government and build a new Bangladesh of his dreams.

(b) No. I do not agree with the statements and fears expressed by various people because these are baseless. No doubt, politics is different from other fields but Yunus has achieved success by establishing Grameen Bank for the welfare of the people. After all democracy is also for the welfare of the people. The statements and fears are from those people who may lose power in future.

(c) The new party should be organised on democratic lines. Organisational elections should be held regularly. There should be transparency in the working of the party. Due representation should be given to all sections of the society including women and minorities.

(d) I would defend the formation of the party on the ground that in a democracy, every citizen has a right to join or form a political party of his choice.

Hey mate!

Here's your answer!!
________________

A》Yes I think that yunus made the right decision to float a new political party floating of such a new political party is necessary as the other parties have moved away of performing their responsibilities.

B》No, I do not agree with the fears and statements expressed by the various people because Muhammad Yunus also received a Nobel Prize, which is not a small thing. But we also know that their is some difference between receiving a Nobel Prize and working as a political activist or a leader.

C》Everyone has their own views regarding anything. According to me, it should give equal rights to man and women, rich and poor and literate and illiterate person. It should be completely democratic and should implement various policies for the development of the country.

D》If I was the one to begin this political party, I would just try to bring some kind of political change in culture so that everything becomes more democratic and corruption free. Moreover, I would directly ask the problems of the people and try to solve them. I would also organize some meetings and seminars in order to take the views of people, like what they think about the topic.
