I don't think anyone has ever disrespected our father of the nation more than the current AL. The man was flawed, but he loved the country more than all current AL leaders combined. Anybody remembers how shocked Mrs. Gandhi was when he demanded that Indian army left right after he came back from Pakistan?

Also, I don't think that the imbeciles realize that you dilute the respect when you start naming everything after one person. The best is to pick one prominent landmark and leave at that.

The problem I see with naming everything after Bangabondhu is exactly that - naming everything after Bangobondhu. I know you have to show homage to your father, but ..... We are not North Korea. Thukku. Maybe we are. This personality worshiping where state controlled media and legislation prohibits any criticism is so 1984. How come we are so backwards? It does not matter whether it is Mujibur "I love one state party" Rahman or Ziaur "hang my opposition" Rahman. Bangladesh not only suffers from a cult of personality but a cult of dynasty. These power-hungry but low IQ women and their hanger-ons will not let rational and intelligent people rise up through the ranks and lead the nation. Sometimes, the people deserve who they elect.
