TEA VILLA Luxury Resort

Dhaka, Thursday 25 June 2026

There’s a moment most parents recognise. You’re standing in the kitchen, phone in hand, half-reading a nursery invoice while the kettle boils.

It creeps into every decision, every plan to work more hours or finally accept that promotion. And somewhere in the middle of that stress sits the Uk childcare account, quietly promising help, while also raising a few awkward questions.

Democracy Under Threat from Silent Militancy

Bangladesh is currently standing at a critical political crossroads. Internal security, the electoral process, international relations, and the future character of the state have collectively created a deep sense of uncertainty. At the heart of this uncertainty lie several fundamental questions—questions that the state has long sought to avoid, but can no longer afford to ignore.

136 Journalists Reject Unilateral Election in Bangladesh

We observe with deep concern that the upcoming national election in Bangladesh is not taking place in a truly participatory and democratic manner. The preparations for an election in which the Awami League—one of the country’s major political parties—along with several other progressive parties, has been effectively barred from participation are contrary to the fundamental spirit of democracy. In this election, the symbol representing the choice of nearly half of the population will be absent from the ballot. As a result, the electoral outcome will not reflect the genuine will of the people.

AI in the Newsroom - Tool or Threat?

Artificial intelligence is quietly reshaping newsrooms around the world.

Bangladesh at a moment of Democratic Concern

In Bangladesh’s political life, veteran voices rarely speak in abstractions. When they express fear, it is usually grounded in long memory and hard-earned experience. So when BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir asks, “We do not know what Bangladesh we are standing in at this moment,” he is not merely voicing personal despair. He is articulating a profound anxiety about the country’s democratic trajectory and the very character of the state.

Radhanagar: Where Heritage Meets Modernity

In Bangladesh’s northeastern corner, where tea gardens stretch toward mist-covered hills, lies Radhanagar—a place that tells a larger story than its modest size suggests. To visitors, it is part of the picturesque landscape of Sreemangal, now celebrated as the country’s “tea capital.” To longtime residents, it is home. But beneath the resorts, paved roads, and soaring land prices lies a deeper narrative—one that raises urgent questions about heritage, development, and who ultimately benefits from progress. Radhanagar is not merely a neighborhood. It is a historical idea, born during the British colonial period and reshaped repeatedly by time, politics, and economics.

When Rumor Becomes a Death Sentence

The killing of a Hindu garment worker at Valuka in Bangladesh, should trouble anyone who believes that the rule of law is more than a slogan.

Promoting Global Competence

Integration of GCED into ELT in Bangladesh

Global Citizenship Education (GCED) represents a transformative framework designed to equip learners for responsible participation in our interconnected world.

Since English acts as a global lingua franca, it provides an unparalleled medium for exploring international values and issues.
