Why
1. Bangladesh liberation 1971 history -- Razkaars (a volunteer organisation ) unleashed by the then governor of east bengal to resist liberation. These Razkaars were islamic fundamentalists and were responsible for largescale atrocities of rape and murder. A member organ of this body of volunteer was the Jamat-e-islami.
2. Post liberation, President Muzbir ur Rehman assasinated by the army in 1975 . the military gvt under Zia ur Rahman was affiliated with Pakistan's army head Zia ul Haq. Both the leaders contributed to significant islamisation of their nations.
3. Awami league party in its election manifesto of 2008 general elections promised justice to perpetrators of 1971 crimes by forming a tribunal.
4. The tribunal in 2011 gave a punishment of life imprisonment to Mollah, rejecting the earlier death penalty.
5. So came the shahbag square protest that was a spontaneous outburst of liberal secular citizens against the lenient judgment of the tribunal. They not only wanted death penalty to the criminals but also a ban on Jamat-e-islami. This protest movement had no leader or wasnt any sort of political mobilisation, however it was certainly influenced by the secular group of netizens active of blogger and facebook.
Another case of social media led spontaneous uprising (showing the power of increasing connectivity and participative democracy) is the Tahir square protest in Egypt against
hosani mobarq -arab spring.
6. Now muslim fundamentalists started attacking the blogger and hacking them to death. Some sad examples are Avijit roy (mukto mon) Neeloy neel etc. Shahbag increased the polarisation in the society and therefore the jamat-e-islami party has struck back. Now the awami league gvt which already took a draconian step against the islamic fundamentalist by forming the tribunal does not want to totally severe of the orthodox muslim vote bank altogether, so it has taken a soft stand against the hacking issue. The fact that Awami league opposition under Khalid Zia capitalises on the islamic votebank, limits actions of Sheikh Hasina
7. What should india be doing here. If nothing then at least RSS should note that some of the bloggers killed were Hindus!!! Oh damn!!
Here is what Faiz sahab penned in response to dictatorship of Zia ul haq...
