Pay attention to people’s interests
It took twenty five years and almost three thousands of my letters to be published in different news papers to realise that it is futile, I have wasted my time and energy unnecessarily, a great weariness has come over me. Not a single letter got response from the concerned authorities, as if they are deaf and blind or they are least bothered about peoples concerns.
When some one is feign sleeping, it is impossible to wake up that person and that is what exactly is happening with those who are in power. They must be fully aware of the hazards of nuclear power plants as experts and conscious citizens are urging the government to abandon the plan and save the country. If an accident happens in the Rooppur nuclear power plant we will be doomed so building of the plant must be stopped.
The government is also planning to set up a coal fired power plant at Rampal which will destroy our heritage Sunderbans, the worlds largest mangrove forest, people will not allow this to happen.
Therefore the government should pay attention to these serious issues, not only of how to remain in control. They are to place people’s interest first.
