It is undeniable that the digital world now shapes every part of our lives, from our daily routines to the way nations engage on the global stage. The speed at which technology has transformed both the world and Bangladesh is something none of us can ignore.
Sometimes my wife and I find ourselves reflecting on how different today’s world is for our daughter compared to the one we grew up in. And like many parents and concerned citizens, we feel both hope and worry. The opportunities are greater than ever, but so are the threats.
If Bangladesh is to move forward, our daughters, mothers, sisters, and colleagues cannot continue to live with fear. Every day, too many women face harassment, intimidation, bullying, and violence simply for speaking, working, studying, or trying to live freely.
This is not the Bangladesh we dream of. And it is not the future our young girls deserve.
Women must feel safe. Both online and offline, at home and in public, in their personal lives and in their professional journeys.
To help make that a reality, here are five urgent priorities that BNP envision implementing:
1. A National Online Safety System - A fast, simple way for women to report cyberbullying, threats, impersonation, and leaked information, supported by a 24/7 hotline, an online portal, and trained responders who act quickly and respectfully. Partnerships with major platforms can improve Bangla-language moderation and ensure abusive content is removed swiftly.
2. Protection Protocols for Women in Public Life - Clear national guidelines, rapid legal and digital support, and confidential reporting channels for women who face attacks as journalists, activists, students, or community leaders. No woman should be silenced for participating in public life.
3. Digital Safety Education - Schools and universities should teach practical digital-safety skills during orientation. Trained teachers act as ‘safety focal points’, and annual awareness campaigns help young people navigate the digital world with confidence.
4. Stronger Community-Level Response to Violence and Harassment - Community help desks, safer transport routes, improved street lighting, and trauma-sensitive responders can make daily life safer and more predictable for women.
5. A Nationwide Push for Women’s Leadership and Participation - Leadership training, mentoring networks, and expanded access to childcare in schools, offices, and workplaces can allow women to lead, achieve, and contribute fully. When women rise, the nation rises with them.
Whatever our politics, religion, ethnicity, or gender, one truth must unite us as Bangladeshis: A Bangladesh where women are safe, supported, and empowered is an unstoppable Bangladesh.
Let us work together to make that future a reality, for our daughters, and for the generations yet to come.

While there's a lot of criticism around Interim, the bold steps that Yunus is taking are going after the syndicate at Chittagong port and NBR
If he manages to do it in his next 12 months, it will be the biggest improvement by a government in the country's history

It’s incredible that Chief Adviser Muhammad Yunus is flying out to Japan on a four-day tour on Wednesday when the country is simmering with protests and people seem to be on edge about political developments. Any responsible, well-meaning head of government should be concerned about de-escalating the situation. But Mr Yunus is going off on yet another unnecessary tour for the head of a temporary, unelected government.
Since becoming the head of the government, Mr Yunus has gone on more foreign trips than Mr Shehbaz Sharif, the elected prime minister of Pakistan. Only Indian Prime Minister Mr Narendra Modi went on more foreign tours than Mr Yunus in that time. Almost all of Mr Yunus’s foreign tours are built around speaking engagements for his Three Zeroes concept, which are broadcast live on BTV. For padding, he holds court with inordinate number of luminaries, the outcome of which is yet to be seen. His last visit to Doha was to speak at a modest conference that was not attended by any head of government.
From there he flew to the Vatican to attend Pope Francis’s funeral and all because the former Pope was his admirer. Here, I must mention that no heads of government of SAARC countries went. None from peer countries like Cambodia or Vietnam went either.
Now let’s get to his trip to Japan. Guess what, it involves a speaking session at the 30th Nikkei Forum. To justify the trip, he will hold meetings with thousands of people that his press wing will publicise to the skies. He will be off on another tour less than ten days later and yes, it is for another personal reason: to collect an award. It’s not like he flies on his own for these tours, which are mainly for enhancing his personal branding — he travels with a sizable entourage on state resources.
If it was an elected head of government, we would have been questioning the frequency and purpose of the tours. Shouldn’t we be doing the same now?
It’s about time we hold him to account. দেশটা কারো বাপের না!
As the death toll rises to 70 in Iran’s devastating port explosion, I extend my heartfelt condolences to the families who lost their loved ones. Our thoughts are also with the injured, and we wish them a swift recovery.

I am deeply saddened by the passing of His Holiness Pope Francis — a revered spiritual leader whose life exemplified compassion, humility, and tireless efforts to foster peace and interfaith dialogue. His moral clarity and unwavering commitment to the dignity of all human beings earned him the respect and admiration of people across all faiths and nations.
On behalf of the Bangladesh Nationalist Party-BNP and the people of Bangladesh, I convey my deepest condolences to the global Catholic community and all those mourning this great loss. The legacy of Pope Francis will continue to inspire generations to come.
