Corona's attack on democracy!!!

Authoritarian and so-called democratic leaders are using the coronavirus threat to consolidate their political power. On this occasion, they are making a firm arrangement to stay in power for the rest of their lives by stabbing human rights and democracy.

The European country Hungary has set an excellent example. That flawed democratic country became completely dictatorial in one fell swoop. Prime Minister Victor Urban has been given the power to rule the country until the end of the country's parliamentary crisis. As a result, parliamentary elections were effectively canceled. The chances of improving his power from the outside are slim. Urban says he needs to have that ability to prevent coronavirus infections. Like other countries in Europe, Hungary is affected by corona. As of last Tuesday, 585 people had died in the small country.

Another country in Europe, Romania's ruling party, used it appropriately at the beginning of the Corona crisis. Unusual 'vote' in the language of the ruling party. So there is no need for the opposition to have too many opportunities. There is no need for much debate and discussion on this. Ludovic Urban is therefore re-elected Prime Minister. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has postponed a corruption trial for three months. This decision has been taken to enforce quarantine in lockdown. Great thing, crisis leaders are capitalizing on the crisis. They are solving their crisis with Corona.

Hungary's far-right leader, who has solidified his political career by campaigning vigorously against immigrants, is targeting opponents. He sees a 'clear link' between coronaviruses and immigration. Those who stand on one foot to stop immigration by tightening immigration laws say Covid-19 is a disease across the border. Foreigners have brought it to our country. So foreigners stopped coming to this country. The Covid-19 is a great opportunity for reformists sitting in the White House. In this opportunity, they have strengthened border control. Apart from this, controlling the movement of people on cell phones, strengthening the activities of the security forces is an opportunity to interfere in the freedom of the people.

The former world leader and 500 Nobel laureates have claimed in an open letter that the government's authoritarian attitude towards the epidemic has increased alarmingly around the world. Dictators around the world are using this crisis to suppress dissent or criticism. The Stockholm-based Institute for Democracy organized the publication of the open letter. The letter said both authoritarian and democratically elected governments were using emergency powers in the wake of the epidemic. Defendants are arresting people, looting democratic values.

The situation of poor and marginalized countries is more miserable. There is no value in the lives of the people, the value of public opinion is far away. The government's one-eyed policy to deal with the epidemic. There is advanced treatment for someone, along with love. For the rest, there is no chance of getting a little doctor's advice. The plane waits in front of the house for the ministers of the poor country. On the other hand, poor people die on the streets. And there are strict laws. The police, the law-court. The coronation period is being tested to see how much the people react to the repression. And how to suppress those reactions. Don't say 'democracy is a tool of dictatorship'.

They are using epidemics to curtail human rights, to tighten state control. They are doing these things illegally. Parliament is being ignored. Journalists are being arrested and harassed. The owner of the information has been summarized. Citizens are being arrested for posting "provocative" posts on social media. Minorities are being made ‘scapegoats’. Therapies such as quarantine and lockdown are being used to quell protests by uniting people rather than controlling the Covid-19 infection. The open letter from the former world leader and Nobel laureate commented that human freedom, health and dignity were all at stake.

The letter was signed by former Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper, Vice President of the European Parliament Clara Dobrev and former US President George W. Bush. In the letter, they said, "stifling freedom of expression, imprisoning dissidents in a peaceful way, holding elections indefinitely = these will not help public health." Democracy is now under threat. They called for unity.

Sweden is a developed country. Their government is also of good quality. They hold democratic values. The Swedish government's relationship with the people of Sweden is transparent. There is no deception in it. There is no question of cheating. One side trusts the other. They have used this relationship of trust to deal with the epidemic. He has taken various steps to uphold the rights of the people. They did not give any instructions like lockdown or deprivation of human freedom. The incidence of corona in the country has not been higher than in neighboring Europe.

The Institute for Democracy is an intergovernmental organization. It works to strengthen the democratic process. Through this effort, the organization seeks to draw the world's attention to how much democracy is being hurt. The Nobel Prize is now considered the highest award in the world. When a person receives this award, his personal dignity increases a lot. The attraction-respect-confidence of the common people is earned towards him. This image can be used later. In poor countries, when someone gets this award, there is a lot of response. People are easily inclined towards doing good deeds with the awardees. Many awardees have done a lot for the welfare of the people. Nobel laureates have often spoken out in unison against injustice, irregularities and corruption. By publishing an open letter with former world leaders and Nobel laureates, they want to do something for a democracy that has faded.

This initiative of the Swedish Institute for Democracy to Protect Democracy is a message to the supporters of democracy. For those who want to promote democracy, it will be useful in formulating policy strategies. However, this effort is less likely to get water. Democracies have broken down in the major countries of the world. The biggest breakdown is seen in America. In this situation, they will play an effective role in protecting democracy in the world. The rule of established democracies is worse than that of many undemocratic countries.

Donald Trump and Narendra Modi are the elected leaders of the two largest and most democratic countries in the world. These leaders have used democracy as an opportunity to get elected. That is the dignity of democracy for them. They are proving that democracy is such a system ব্যবস্থা even the dictators can take advantage of it. Both are considering people on the basis of religion and caste. Both of them are adopting and implementing such a policy which is creating different classes of people in the country. Whites in America and Hindus in India are superior in status. They are Brahmins, so they have more opportunities. Their superiority must be acknowledged. Others have to bow down to the whites and the Brahmins. Rights cannot be raised. At the beginning of the Corona outbreak, propaganda was spread in India that it was a Muslim disease. Muslims are responsible for its spread. With this there is a strong campaign against preaching. The BJP government also filed a case against their mentors. China's regime is in no way worse than these countries. In terms of governance, China is now better than the United States and India. The ability to deal with the Corona bears witness to their good governance. Corona is native to China, where it infects less than 100,000 people and kills less than 8,000. On the other hand, there is a lot of chaos in the United States. More than 2.7 million Americans are affected, and more than 1.28 million lives are lost. In India, the number of corona patients has crossed five and a half lakh, more than 16 thousand have died. There is now no fundamental difference between the US-India and China in terms of authoritarian attitudes. So the Chinese have less chance of being called inferior than them.

Its well-wishers are worried about the future of democracy. It is deteriorating everywhere from Europe to America. Freedom House's 2019 report states that democracy has been losing its health for 13 consecutive years. Since its birth in 18 years, the United States has been a staunch supporter of world democracy. Since World War II, they have spent billions of dollars establishing and maintaining democracy in many parts of the world. Thousands of Americans have died abroad for this. They have also had great success in establishing democracy in South Korea, India and Chile. Vietnam, Afghanistan and Venezuela have also failed miserably. In the midst of success and failure, the task of ferrying democracy has taken America forward. Donald Trump came to power and reversed the course of history. He wants to be the first American president to become an dictator himself. What will happen to democracy in the rest of the world?

The suggestion is that America should be a peddler of 'good governance' instead of 'democracy'. Because democracy is in turmoil now. It has become a foggy concept. Autocratic governments have abused it so much that people are unhappy with its oppression. Again the dictators claim to be the best democratic rulers. They gain so much power through democracy; Nothing can be said about them. Proponents of democracy have said that all religions, castes and creeds will be accommodated. It declares that the people will be the source of all power. Free and fair elections will be a method of electing people's representatives. None of this is now the case in many democracies. It is therefore now completely corrupted.

Will democracy be able to become strong again in the world by handling the corona? Experts probably can't say anything to be optimistic about. The solution is not socialism; That has been proven long ago. Will a dictator's paradise be created for the world, or will a bigger corona throw the whole world into more anarchy, chaos, and chaos? There is no better policy of governing the country that is not in the hands of the people. A good policy can never do anything good unless the person behind it is good. The man in the back is getting worse day by day. The misery of the people of the world is also increasing.
