Dear Readers
This is an open letter! Why it is an open letter? I don't know the basic reason of why! But what i felt is that - i will write this article as an open letter format. So that every body knows about the situation and feels to do something for the new threats that have emerged in Bangladesh.
Before describing the situation i would like to focus on some events that took place in this year 2010.
