Bangladesh celebrates 37th Victory Day Today

Bangladesh celebrates Independence Day on March 26, and the Bengali reliving the horrific Operation Reflector initiated by the Pakistan Army on 25 March 1971 in a desperate attempt to eradicate the Bengali nationalist movement. 

Abul Bahar relives the fateful night of 25 March 1971 with the following words: 

Suddenly, Dhaka was paralyzed. Everything was quiet. The country shook with the heavy tread of the forces of evil. The ground was soaked in red and fragrant flower hasnahana was dominated by the stench of blood. 

Today, bloggers are energetic about the approximately 3 million people were exterminated in 1971. Some prominent bloggers have met the Bangladeshi Genocide Archive Bangladesh to raise awareness among netizens of the magnitude of the atrocities committed against the Bengali population of the Pakistani army with the help of Razakars. A new website to be launched by bloggers is Bangladesh 1971, it expects to connect the current generation of Bangladeshis with the life and times of those who fought for independence, while simultaneously maintaining pressure on the national consciousness for the perpetrators accountable. 

Why is it necessary today to relive the fight for freedom? Perhaps to avoid the 'Hollywoodization of the liberation war' as he puts Rasel. Also, Shamim clarifies why after all these years, remains essential to bring war criminals to trial. He says she is a sense of retribution but that this 'accountability' is needed as a future deterrent. It is also a necessary step to ensure justice and as a closure for the victims and the families who survive. 

Rabab writes that this Independence Day not only inspiration but feel a sense of hurt and disappointment when she sees around corruption and the victory of the separatist forces, who dreams of a united economically strong Bangladesh fading into despair. The blogger Shobjanta seems to share these wounds. But the feeling fades when listening attentively to the national anthem "Amar Shonar Bangla, ami tomay bhalobashi" (my beautiful Bengal, I love you).

History of Father's Day

The history of Father's Day is very interesting. The thought for creating a day for children to honor their fathers began in Spokane, Washington. The idea of having the Father's Day came to the mind of Sonora Smart while listening to a Mother's Day sermon in 1909.

After the death of her mother, she along with her siblings was raised by her father, William Jackson Smart. Sonora wanted to tell her father how special he was. Sonora's father was born in June, so she chose to hold the first Father's Day celebration in Spokane, Washington on the 19 th of June, 1910.

The National Father's Day Committee was formed in New York City in 1926. A Joint Resolution of Congress recognized the Father's day in 1956 and in 1966 President Richard Nixon established a permanent national observance of Father's Day to be held on the third Sunday of June. Thus, the Father's Day was born in memory and appreciation by a daughter who believed that her father and all other fathers should be honored with a special day.

The government estimates that 250 Mega Watts of power per day could be saved by having more daylight hours in the evening so that people avoid using electric lights.

Mother Language Day Today (Bangla)


Mother tongue - a language lullaby songs that we sang as a child my mother, the language of the recognition of love, the language of pre-whisper and angry rebuke going to scaffold heroes. Label the expression of Joseph Brodsky, language - not instrument for the poet, the poet - the tool of language.



Language - a tool, the language - sort of code system, its culture, which is transmitted to us with the milk of mothers from generation to generation, enriched us, and enriched himself by us throughout our lives.

Mother tongue - it is the parent. International Mother Language Day , After all, not without reason called the International Mother Language Day, which has for nearly ten years, celebrates the world in English sounds as International Mother Language Day,

International Mother Language Day was established in 1999 by UNESCO and supported by the United Nations.Since then, every year on February 21 the world celebrates this holiday.
Vote now for Cox's Bazar, Perhaps most beautiful sea beach in the world
Vote now for Sundorbonn Largest Mangrove Forest in The World

However, whether a holiday? Because it was based on real events that happened in East Pakistan in 1952. He has a finger in the blood of five of Bengali students - supporters give their language official status. The police then brutally massacred demonstration. But the memory of the defenders of the mother tongue is not only in East Pakistan, which became in 1971 the state of Bangladesh, but throughout the world.
