    The day civilization started on planet to the day it perishes,only one rule follow,MIGHT IS RIGHT.People like Rahul Gandhi,many others like him boast rubbishly,as about creation of Bangladesh it is made to go unnoticed.But in this democracy common man's freedom of expression is also demarcated,by attitudes,moods of law enforcing agencies.
