Highjacking, Pick Pocketing, Kidnappings and Abduction

We feel sorry when we see the young people are misguided and follow wrong paths. We cannot blame them solely for this. Our society has become like this. High jacking, pick pocketing, kidnappings and abduction have risen so high that it has become a major concern for us. Not only in the capital city of Dhaka that these incidents happen, these are present all around the country. Government has failed miserably to control the law and order situation of the country. The situation of law and order is far far dangerous in the capital than any other cities. Whether it is early in the morning or late at night, no one is free to move freely. Anytime you might get into trouble by the high jackers. The law enforcers are inactive and helpless. Even if they capture the criminals, the criminals get freed when the pay bribes to police. Rather, innocent people are the real sufferers both to these criminals and to the police officers. It is heard that police officers get shares from the criminals. Whatever kidnappers or high jackers could take in a day, the police officers get half of it. We are in need of honest law enforcing agencies where people will be the protector of the citizens. We also need to change our existing laws of the country.
Besides blaming these miscreants we also have to find out why they are easily inclined towards these acts. The abnormal high rise in price of basic commodities is a major reason. The lack of religious and moral values is also another reason and of course the lack of jobs is one of the main reasons behind these peoples coming to this dark world.
Our young generation must always remember the quote made by John F. Kennedy “Ask not what your country can do for you but ask what you can do for your country.” By believing in this statement, only then we can build a prosperous Bangladesh.
