AN OPEN LETTER TO THE "CHIEF ELECTION COMMISSIONER”

Dear Mr. Khan ,

You deserve big thanks for your press release. It was well explained and should clear the mind of the Bangladeshi community those who were confused about the extension of the dead line.
In that press release you mentioned your self the “just-resigned Chief Election Commissioner”. I was very surprise to see that.
This is shocking. I believe that you have the right to take your own decision but don’t you think that this decision involves more than just you & involves a big community?
The hope & aspiration of so many Bangladeshi – Americans who waited for 12 long years to see BALA functioning was shuttered by seeing only on word on the press realize.
Under such crucial time, Bangladeshi community needs a person with your skill & knowledge. The community needs strong leader like you.
As a Bangladeshi who feels for the community. I’m requesting you please don’t leave the leadership halfway. With your guidance knowledge it will only be possible to revive BALA.
This is our prestige. At least for once we should prove that we can be united.
The people, who do not want BALA to function, we cannot let them provoke us. They may have their own agenda in mind but we cannot let them win. BALA is above any one’s personal agenda, it is for a community.
We should identify those elements & their negative roles in the society. We must unmask those who want to destroy such a good initiative.
Please don’t abundant BALA. Majority of the people of our community believe that you are doing a good job. You are our only hope through which we can present our new generation a committee for BALA.
Hope you will understand our feelings & reconsider our request.
If I know you well, to you responsibility comes first and you have the responsibility vested upon you through the court.
Since there is no one to accept your resignation it seems that it is already null and void.
Please stop addressing your self as the just-resigned Chief Election Commissioner and continue your good effort.
My support and appreciation will always be there for you, and I’m sure that the rest of the community will do the same.

With best regards
Syed Ferdaus “Munna”
