Bangladesh: Press Freedom · Global Voices
Neha Viswanathan

A discussion in the comments space at Drishtipat on the RSF Press Freedom Index which places Bangladesh at 137.”The major obstacle to press freedom in BD is the lawless street and democracy of elections. If someone publishes cartoons depicting Muhammad, there will be street violence, act of coercion and eventually govt (irrespective of party in power) will ban that issue for fear of election reprisal.”
