Gono Forum president Dr Kamal Hossain on Friday said the State now has lost the sense of humanity as the rulers have got detached from people.

“The rulers have lost the ability to listen to people’s voices…they should be given mental treatment… they should be given hearing treatment,” Dr Kamal continued.
Both the rulers and people count the cost when the former does not give a air to the latter, he said adding people pay for it through sufferings caused by hartal, vandalism and atrocities and the rulers pay for it by getting ousted from power.
Dr Kamal also observed that the rulers have a mentality to remain in power at any cost, even at the expense of bright possibility of development.
Citing media reports about corruption in the judiciary, the jurist voiced his grave concern and said he will issue a letter urging the Chief Justice to take stern actions in this regard.
Reminding the country’s people that they are the only source of the state power, he urged people to get united imbued with the core
principles of Bangladesh constitution and to form a humanitarian and pro-people parliament to establish people’s power.
