Dhaka Tribune (English)-এর প্রতিবেদন থেকে হুবহু উদ্ধৃত

  • Bangladesh is a nation built on resilience, sacrifice, and determination.
  • Yet, somewhere along our journey, we seem to have developed an unfortunate tendency to allow disagreements to escalate into crises, crises into national spectacles, and national spectacles into narratives that overshadow everything we have worked so hard to achieve.
  • We must ask ourselves whether we are allowing these narratives to define Bangladesh more prominently than its achievements.
