সোমবার (৩ মার্চ) সমাজকল্যাণ মন্ত্রণালয়ের প্রশাসন-৫ (প্রশাসন ও শৃঙ্খলা) শাখার এক প্রজ্ঞাপনে তাকে সাময়িক বরখাস্ত করা হয়।

রাষ্ট্রপতির আদেশক্রমে প্রজ্ঞাপনে সই করেন সচিব ড. মো. মহিউদ্দিন। এই প্রজ্ঞাপনের কপি সমাজকল্যাণ মন্ত্রণালয়ের ওয়েবসাইটে প্রকাশ করা হয়েছে। এতে বলা হয়েছে, রিকশাচালককে নির্দয়ভাবে প্রহার করার ভিডিও সামাজিক মাধ্যমে ভাইরাল হয়েছে এবং বিষয়টি নিয়ে গণমাধ্যমে সংবাদ প্রকাশ হয়েছে। এ ধরনের আচরণ সমাজকল্যাণ মন্ত্রণালয় ও সমাজকল্যাণ অধিদপ্তরের ভাবমূর্তি চরমভাবে ক্ষুন্ন করেছে।

সরকারি কর্মচারী হিসেবে তার এ ধরনের আচরণ অশোভনীয়, অসংগত, চাকরি শৃঙ্খলা পরিপন্থী এবং শাস্তিযোগ্য অপরাধ।

রাজশাহীর জেলা প্রশাসক আফিয়া আখতার ওই ঘটনার তদন্ত করে প্রতিবেদন দিতে গত শনিবার উপজেলা নির্বাহী কর্মকর্তাকে (ইউএনও) নির্দেশ দিয়েছেন। এর প্রেক্ষিতে রোববার তিন সদস্যের তদন্ত কমিটি করেছেন ইউএনও। এই তদন্ত শেষ হওয়ার আগেই জাহিদ হাসানকে সাময়িক বরখাস্ত করল মন্ত্রণালয়।

এর আগে গত শুক্রবার একটি সিসি ক্যামেরার ফুটেজ সামাজিক মাধ্যমে ছড়িয়ে পড়ে। তাতে দেখা যায়, কোয়ার্টারের সামনে জাহিদ হাসান রাসেল এক রিকশাচালককে পায়ের জুতা খুলে পেটান। পরে প্রাইভেট কারের ব্যাকডালা থেকে লাঠি বের করে চালকের শরীরে ও রিকশায় আঘাত করতে থাকেন তিনি। এ ছাড়া অশ্লীল ভাষায় গালাগাল করতেও দেখা যায় তাকে।

রিকশাচালককে জুতাপেটার ভিডিও ছড়িয়ে পড়লে সোমবার পর্যন্ত দুই দিন ছুটি নেন জাহিদ। সোমবার নিজের ফেসবুক আইডিতে একটি স্ট্যাটাস দিয়ে ঘটনার জন্য তিনি অনুতপ্ত বলে উল্লেখ করেন। তিনি লেখেন, ‘এমন ঘটনা কি আর কারও জীবনে ঘটেনি? আমি অন্যায় করেছি। কিন্তু এত বড় শাস্তি কি আমার পাওনা ছিল?’ ওই ঘটনার জন্য নিঃশর্ত ক্ষমাও প্রার্থনা করেন সমাজসেবা কর্মকর্তা।

Top 18 William Shakespeare quotes

Our first quote is from one of Shakespeare’s plays that many of us may not have heard of, The Merry Wives Of Windsor. 

This quote provides many different emotions and opinions in just one sentence, for instance, “3 hours early” means when you have the chance to change something or to make it right, whereas “a minute too late” refers to something you have done that can’t be taken back. 

When looking at this quote as a whole, it reflects how we all have to face the fact that nothing is ever perfect and that we all make mistakes from time to time, but we also in certain circumstances, have the right to change it.

2. “My words fly up, my thoughts remain below. Words without thoughts never to heaven go.”

Originating from one of Shakespeare’s most famous plays, Hamlet. You will see this quote used when Hamlet knows his father was killed when he was sleeping, and when he leaves, Claudius says, "My words fly up, my thoughts remain below. Words without thoughts never to heaven go.”

Effectively, what Claudius is trying to say here is that he has not been praying in earnest, and therefore God will not hear his words.

3. “Brevity is the soul of wit.”

Another one is from Hamlet. This quote provides a multiplicity of meanings. In one sense, it can mean that a good piece of writing or a speech should remain brief and concise.

However, in another sense, it could imply that a speech with humor should be short, otherwise, it will lose its “flavor”. 

To wrap this quote up in one definition “brevity is the soul of wit” implies that keeping something succinct sounds wiser, wittier, and even funnier, than a long, drawn-out statement.

4. “Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind, and therefore is winged Cupid painted blind”

From A Midsummer Night’s Dream, this extract is saying that you should not fall in love just with a person’s beauty, but rather with their personality, mind, heart, and soul.

5. “Suit the action to the word, the word to the action.”

This expression comes from a scene in Hamlet in which a troupe of people arrives to present a play to the king and queen. 

But in context for the reader, this quote defines how people follow through with actions that they talk about or intend to do.

6. “No legacy is so rich as honesty.”

This quotation is from one of Shakespeare’s less-heard-of plays, “All’s Well That Ends Well”. Where these words are spoken by the character, Mariana.

In this scene, Shakespeare is providing a meaning that it is best to be known concerning honesty and truthfulness, rather than other traits.

7. “All that glitters is not gold.”

Originating from the 16th century, the quote “All that glitters is not gold.” is from the play, The Merchant Of Venice.

In particular, this proverb expresses the idea that shiny/glittering things aren’t necessarily precious or valuable.

8. “Love all, trust a few, do wrong to none.”

Another quote from the play, All’s Well That Ends Well. 

This extract from the play is said in the first act and scene and is one of the most powerful quotes, due to their variety of meanings. 

Let’s break this quote down and see the different techniques and emotions, Shakespeare has included.

“Love All” – Don’t restrict your love to just certain people. Open your heart to the right people.

“Trust A Few” – The realization that certain people will do evil to others, so don’t place your trust in everyone, only the ones whose intention is pure.

“Do Wrong To None” – Never do bad things because no one deserves it. The stronger person will always do the right thing.

9. “Our doubts are traitors and make us lose the good we oft might win by fearing to attempt.”

Thought to have been written in 1603/4, this quote originates from the play, Measure For Measure, which was listed as a comedy in its time.

This quote provides the meaning that when we start to second guess ourselves or when we don’t do something because we are fearful, then that can be a loss of opportunity for something that could have been great.

In particular, the extract “Our doubts are traitors” says that our inner voice can betray ourselves.

10. “Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them”

This line is from the famous play Twelfth Night, which is a quote that is still used to this day to help describe the greatness of certain people and how they have achieved their successes on their own.

This quote is most commonly used to describe military leaders, but we can probably also think of someone in your life who fits into each of these three categories.

11. “To be or not to be: that is the question”

One of the most famous Shakespeare quotes of all time, the sentence “To be or not to be: that is the question” originates from the play, Hamlet.

This is the “great” question that Hamlet asks about human existence in general towards his existence in particular – A reflection as to whether it is better to be alive or dead.

12. “All the world’s a stage”

From the pastoral comedy, As You Like It. This strong quote “All the world’s a stage” 

provides a meaning that the world is like a stage show, and all human beings are actors who take part in different roles in everyday life.

13. “What, my dear Lady Disdain! Are you yet living?”

This quote is said in the first act and scene of the play, Much Ado About Nothing.

This extract is said with much sarcasm by the intentional nickname and the question provides a show of how their relationship is based on quick-witted arguments.

14. “If music be the food of love, play on”

This quote from Twelfth Night uses a magnificent play on words, as it describes music being the “food” of love, as food is a vital thing that fuels the body, as can music as it feeds the burgeoning love that is felt in someone’s heart.

15. “I cannot tell what the dickens his name is”

To answer your question – No, it is not to do with Charles Dickens. 

This quote (originating from Merry Wives Of Windsor) includes the euphemism “Dickens” as a representation of the “devil”, but this common expression was used for centuries before Charles Dickens was born.

16. “Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?”

Sonnet 18 is one of the best-known of the 154 sonnets written by Shakespeare. But when focusing in particular on the famous phrase “Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?” 

The speaker describes whether he should compare a young man to a summer’s day but also notes that the young man has qualities that surpass the beauty and warming of a summer’s day.

17. “What’s in a name? A rose by any name would smell as sweet”

In Act II, Scene II of Romeo and Juliet, Juliet says this phrase about family and the family name of Romeo, implying that his family name has nothing to do with their love and that they should be together.

18. “A horse! A horse! My kingdom for a horse!”

“A horse! A horse! My kingdom for a horse!” is one of Shakespeare’s best-known lines which is said in the play Richard III, after losing his horse in battle.

The meaning of the expression is that the speaker is in high need of a particular item and is willing to trade something of great value to get it.

Do you find any of these quotes inspirational? Do you use them in your everyday life?
