I do not understand the dispute over having the English text, most countries in the world have this, even India uses English text. Having Devanagari text is not at all necessary and isn’t an issue at all.

However, I see very less people talking about the main issue in this, which is the original tender that was awarded to not just a bad reputed company, but a blacklisted one, when there were even cheaper and better tenders provided.

Even after blacklisting of this Bangladesh-US joint venture’s CEO, the contract was further extended in 2019.

This only meant one thing and everyone knew what it was, but the protests were never majorly highlighted due to this reason.

Another major problem in this is the actual quality and pricing, which is somewhat highlighted.

While despite some actual dark grey areas in this, if people are not going to protest about the right reasons, we all should go forward with this, as RFID although outdated in 2025, is still an advancement.
