Dhaka: Prime Minister Tarique Rahman is constantly breaking and rebuilding himself with decisions like initiatives to reduce the culture of personal propaganda in state campaigns, reluctance to name government institutions after himself or his family, shrinking government protocols, evaluating performance in administration, a message of coexistence instead of politics of revenge, and frugality in government spending. These steps are being seen as a reflection of his experience of long political exile and a new perspective on running the state.
According to political analysts, these are not just administrative decisions; they are indications of a silent transformation from individual-centric politics to institution-centric state governance. Many see these steps as ‘silent reforms’.
According to them, Tarique Rahman is taking himself to new heights in such a positive culture.
