It was in these services, moreover, that trade unions developed which reinforced the interests of their employees as against those of people engaged in agriculture and in industry.

While those at the helm of affairs continue to remain in the denial mode by ruling out the report as rumour, examinees have revealed to the press that they were given a question paper set during the examination held on Friday last that was identical with the one they had obtained the night before.
In Bangladesh, where quite a few cabinet reshuffles should have taken place in the past four years, all in the interest of efficient governance, instances of powerful people resigning from a sense of failure or from a recognition of moral compulsions have most unfortunately been absent.
When you look back at the history of political departures in Bangladesh, you could be excused for thinking that there has been a whole cavalcade of ministers who ought to have left office at some point or the other, owing to their incompetence or their irrelevance but did not.
