The New Nation - Internet Edition

I live in a town. Vote casting of 9th Parliamentary election was just finished at 4 p.m Vote counting was going on, it was then 7 p.m, Some unrestrained boys started dancing beside the road using Hindi song with loud volume that could not be seen during the Caretaker government. My younger son's admission test of class three will be held on 3rd January but he could not study. It seems that the country goes to the previous days in just couple of hours.

Some days ago, I was talking to one of my friends who trade cloths in an upazila headquarter. "How is your business going" I asked. In reply, my trader friend told me, "Business was not so good during the Caretaker government, but there was no extortion and we were really happy. Now democracy is coming back and so we have to give extortion and the peace may disappear.

When could we get free from extortion and torture by the unrestrained boys ?
