I Believe In Absolute Freedom Of Expression.

If Any Religion Allows The Persecution Of The People Of Different Faiths, If Any Religion Keeps Women In Slavery, If Any Religion Keeps People In Ignorance, Then I Can't Accept That Religion.

The Fundamentalists Are Increasing. People, Afraid To Oppose Those Fundamentalists, Shut Their Mouths. It Is Really Very Difficult To Make People Move Against A Sensitive Issue Like Religion, Which Is The Source Of Fundamentalism.

I Believe That If The Silent Majority Were To Protest Against Those Who Believe In Irrational Blind Faith - Who Want To Go Backwards Instead Of Forward, Who Are For Tradition Not Innovation, Who Oppose Individualism And Plurality Of Thought - Then The World Would Become A Truly Civilized World In Which To Live.

I Have Been Writing Poetry Since 1975. My First Poetry Book Was Published In 1986.

All I Ever Want Is To Return To Either Bangladesh, My Motherland, Or India, My Adopted Home.
