From the Core of Darkness...

What is the sin of 165 families living in the darkness of Joyma Camp? Are they Criminals, Bangladeshi Infiltrators or borne as MUSLIMS? Reasons are Many, Choice is Yours...

 
Joyma Camp is a small village reflecting the darkness and neglection of

society and a live proof of our tormented democracy. According to our constitution, everyone irrespective of caste, religion or region has right to education, right to food and right to privacy, but what is the reason of deprivation in Joyma Camp.  Why people are in so much threat that they do not want their land, capital or file a legal case against their loss.

The question, why are they not willing to go back and want to stay in this village where roof, proper sanitation and meal a challenge. For these people, home, education for children, safety for their women and enough money to feed their family is like a dream. And, they have some sort of believe that dream will not come true because our educated and well informed people still pre-categorized them as outsiders.  

Discussing role of media, the main aim is to maintain harmony and peace in our country. But, our media should realise that covering such location or revealing the problems of most vulnerable community or exposing the truth does not mean you are Anti-Nationalist or Pro-Muslims.

Looking forward:
