A True and Common Demand from the People of Bangladesh
What we want is not luxury. Not miracles. Just the basics—done right.
We want our children to grow up in a country where education means more than memorizing. Where schools prepare them to think, solve problems, and grow—not to fear exams or depend on coaching centers.
We want healthcare that works—for everyone. Not just for those with money or influence. We want to walk into a hospital without fear of neglect, delay, or debt.
We want work with dignity. Not just survival jobs, but employment that values our time and skill. We’re tired of watching our youth leave the country to find respect abroad. We want reasons to stay, reasons to believe.
We want fairness. Whether we are farmers, factory workers, artists, engineers, drivers, or small business owners—we all deserve to be treated with respect. We don’t want to beg for services, pay bribes for what should be free, or live in fear of those meant to protect us.
We want safety—for all, especially for women. We want to see streets, buses, and homes where our daughters and sisters feel safe. Not just hashtags after every tragedy, but real, lasting change.
We want leadership that listens. Not recycled slogans. Not silence in times of crisis. We want elections that count, laws that apply to all, and justice that does not wait for media attention.
We want clean air in our lungs, clean water in our homes, and affordable food on our plates. We want roads that don’t flood, cities that don’t choke, and villages that don’t disappear from national plans.
We want freedom. Freedom to think, to question, to create, to disagree. Without fear. Without labels.
We want our culture to be more than a showpiece. We want our songs, languages, traditions, and stories to be lived and shared—not packaged for VIPs and festivals, but owned by everyone.
We don’t want to just survive—we want to live with purpose, with pride.
We are not asking for anything unreasonable.
We are asking for what any citizen should expect: a country that works—for all of us.
That is what we want.
And deep down, we know—we are not alone.
