On this point, there should be frequent training of the Ansars and VDP with the Army which will further strengthen their idea of 'national' security. They, whatever the fact is, are not burdened with meeting external threats from other countries like our Defense Force...hence i would suggest them to be given limited and controlled training and idea on how to mobilize, act and respond during a war scenario. This will not only improve their personal skills, but also their method of maintaining internal security.
They must also be made to feel that they are equally responsible for Bangladesh's security, just like an Air Marshall or a General. Its all about the feeling of a 'team-work', so that no one thinks one is better then the other. They are total of 1 million, and if they can fire a simple MANPAD along with a .303, then why not!
Cheers!!!
This is a problem in Bangladeshi culture in general. Not only in military.
