Depicting a political leader, let alone any ordinary person, taking off his shoes and socks and walking barefoot on the ground, smelling the earth, when he returns to the beloved homeland after almost a decade and a half seems not to be unusual. In that sense, the sight of Tarique Rahman walking barefoot on the ground at Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport in Dhaka on December 25, after spending 17 years in exile in London, did not impress people. But what caught more attention was that he replaced the special chairs on the reception stage in the 300-foot highway area with ordinary chairs, made no negative comments about his political opponents, made no slanderous remarks, showed no egoism, and did not show people lofty dreams. Also, the political foresight and economy of words and phrases that Tarique Rahman displayed in his speech by saying 'I have a plan' in imitation of Martin Luther King, the famous civil rights leader, priest, and symbol of non-violent movement in the United States, may help understand the dynamics of his future politics.
