Neutral point of view edit
There are several places in this article that do not provide encyclopedic content. They seem to be about saying how fortunate and wonderful the subject is, instead of sticking to relevant facts.
As an example of relevance, consider this sentence:
"Rashid was born in a sleepy little village called Askarpur situated in the district of Rangpur in 1965 in erstwhile East Pakistan (now Bangladesh) during one of the most tumultuous times in the country's history."
The description of his hometown as "a sleepy little village" seems fanciful and does not seem relevant. It is not obvious whether, or how, the "tumultuous times" affected him in particular. A more normal way to say this might sound like this:
"Askari was born in Askarpur, Rangpur in 1965, which was then part of East Pakistan (now Bangladesh)."
Much of the article has this unencyclopedic tone. It is mostly about the writing style, but it is partly about the selection of favorable or exciting facts (such as him hobnobbing with people from other countries). Fixing this completely may not be easy, but it is probably easy to find some ways to improve it. WhatamIdoing (talk) 20:36, 6 April 2020 (UTC)

Neutrality of this article is disputed. edit
As a contributor I do not have close connection with the subject Rashid Askari. But I know from various authentic sources that he is a renowned person in Bangladesh in many respects. I added some sources/references to help maintain the encyclopedic tone with a view to removing the template messages.
Also I have noticed that another wiki person has changed Rashid Askari’s content to keep it in the encyclopedic tone and now it is in perfect encyclopedic tone. And hence I removed the notification “tone or style may not reflect the encyclopedic tone used on Wikipedia”. I am sure that no information about the subject is incorrect and all the information is strongly documented. So I would request you to remove the template messages at the top. As a wiki volunteer, I am trying to make the concerned content error-free. So I request you to encourage me to help contribute to the new contents by way of making them error-free.
