The Reunification of Great India is an Ambitious Initiative: A Vision of 2050

The Indian subcontinent has a long and complex history, with various empires and kingdoms ruling the land for centuries. However, with the arrival of colonialism, the region became divided and fragmented, leading to the creation of modern-day India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh. This partition caused significant conflicts and divisions between the people of the region. Today, there is a call for a bold and courageous step towards reunification, an initiative that can only be achieved through education. The power of education can build a sense of shared identity and purpose among the people of the subcontinent, with a one-world, one-identity, one-curriculum based education system. This can create a generation of young people who appreciate and respect the diversity of the region and promote harmony and unity. The government must take this initiative seriously and invest in building a world-class education system that can bring the nation together. Citizens must support this initiative and work towards a brighter and more prosperous future. Learning from the mistakes of the past, the people of the subcontinent can draw inspiration from the reunification of Germany in 1990 and work towards a similar outcome. However, building a strong foundation for the country requires more than just education. Good governance and institutional democracy are two key factors that play a significant role in building a strong foundation for any country. Good governance and democracy ensure accountability, transparency, and equal representation of citizens in the political process. Good governance is crucial for any country to maintain stability, growth, and development. It ensures that the government functions in a transparent and accountable manner, and all the decisions are made in the best interest of the people. A government that practices good governance encourages civic participation, promotes human rights, and fosters economic growth. Institutional democracy is a system that allows citizens to participate in the political process through elections, referendums, and other forms of civic engagement. It promotes equal representation of all citizens, regardless of their socio-economic background, ethnicity, or gender. Institutional democracy encourages transparency and accountability in the political process, which fosters public trust in the government. To build a strong foundation, the establishment of a legal framework is required, outlining the rights and responsibilities of citizens and the government. This framework should ensure that all citizens have equal access to the political process and that the government is accountable to its citizens. In conclusion, the reunification of Great India is an ambitious initiative, requiring education, good governance, and institutional democracy. Building a strong foundation for the country is crucial to maintain stability, growth, and development. The establishment of a legal framework that promotes transparency, accountability, and equal representation of citizens in the political process is essential for citizens to trust their government, participate in the political process, and contribute to the development of their country. By prioritizing education, good governance, and institutional democracy, countries can build a strong foundation for a prosperous and sustainable future.

An Appeal for Permanent Protection System for Minorities of Bangladesh

Honorable Prime Minister, I am writing to express my deep concern over the recent attacks on minority communities in Bangladesh, and to urge your government to take immediate action to establish a protection system permanently for these communities. As you are aware, attacks on minority communities have been on the rise in Bangladesh in recent years, and the situation has become more urgent with the recent attacks in many places of Bangladesh. These attacks have caused significant harm and trauma to the affected communities, and it is crucial that your government takes steps to ensure their safety and security. To this end, I strongly recommend the establishment of a protection system for minority communities in Bangladesh, which could include the following measures: 1. Establishing a Constitutional Commission to oversee and monitor the protection of minority communities, and to ensure that their rights are fully respected. 2. Establishing Special Tribunals for speedy trial as a requirement in area basis, to ensure that any cases of violence or discrimination against minority communities are promptly and fairly addressed. 3. Establishing a special police force for the protection of minority communities, with a focus on preventing violence and discrimination, and ensuring the safety and security of all individuals. These measures, if implemented effectively, would go a long way in addressing the root causes of discrimination and violence against minority communities in Bangladesh, and would provide much-needed protection to those who are most vulnerable. I urge you to take immediate action to establish a protection system for minority communities in Bangladesh, and to ensure that the human rights of all individuals are fully respected and protected. Your leadership and commitment to these issues are critical in ensuring a more inclusive and tolerant society, where all individuals can live without fear of discrimination or violence. Thank you for your attention to this important matter. Sincerely, --Minhaz Samad Chowdhury, Independent HR Defender

One World, One Identity, One Curriculum: A Vision for the Children of Tomorrow

As the world becomes increasingly interconnected and globalized, it is more important than ever for our children to have a shared understanding of what it means to be a citizen of the world. This vision of a unified world, with one syllabus, one curriculum, and one identity, is not only a dream for the future, but a necessary step towards building a better tomorrow. The idea of a unified world is not new, but it has never been more pressing than it is today. With the rise of nationalism and division, it is crucial that we provide our children with the tools and knowledge they need to understand and appreciate the diverse cultures, religions, and traditions that make up our world. A shared curriculum, with a focus on global citizenship and intercultural understanding, can help to break down barriers and foster a sense of unity and belonging among all people. A unified curriculum would also provide our children with a common foundation of knowledge and skills, allowing them to work together towards shared goals and aspirations. It would provide them with a sense of purpose and direction, and give them the tools they need to make a positive impact on the world. In order to achieve this vision, it is essential that we work together as a global community. Governments, educators, and organizations must come together to create a curriculum that is inclusive, accessible, and relevant to all. This curriculum must be grounded in the principles of equality, justice, and respect for all people, and must provide opportunities for students to develop critical thinking skills, creativity, and empathy. Ultimately, the goal of a unified world, with one syllabus, one curriculum, and one identity, is to create a future where all children can thrive. It is a future where they can be proud of their unique heritage and culture, while also embracing the diversity of others. It is a future where they can work together to solve the challenges of our time and build a better world for all. In conclusion, let us strive to make this vision a reality for the children of tomorrow. Let us work together to create a world where all people are valued, respected, and have the opportunity to reach their full potential. Together, we can build a better future for the children of tomorrow. Minhaz Samad Chowdhury Independent HR Defender
