Dear Sir:

I seriously think that you should not come into politics. I know the country needs good people to cleanse its trashes left behind by a group of lust politicians. All politicians are not corrupt. But so far as I know, you are one of the leading businessmen and you may utilize your powers or authority to make more profits in your existing business.

Sir, you may completely spoil your present rate of acceptability with this step. I know you have agreed to sacrifice this and willing to risk being controvertial. However, we are not sure about your effectiveness at all.

Your Grameen Bank, an NGO, is a leading concern that gives interest-free loans to extreme poor women. After research on your loan recovery process, I have come to know that lots of families have been driven out of their homes when they could not repay an extreme high interest on the loan. I am not at all satisfied by the process of recovery and the 35% interest rate on the loan. Your Bank also puts conditions that the beneficiary can not sell her products to other buyer, even at a higher offer.

I strongly believe that you have to delink yourself completely from any business venture including Grameen Bank before entering into politics.
