  • 26Th March 2021 Golden Jubilee of Independence Bangladesh
    6 BANGLADESH FRIDAY-SUNDAY, MARCH 26-28, 2021 26th March 2021 Golden Jubilee of Independence Bangladesh Our constitution was made on the basis of the spirit of the liberation war under his direction within just 10 months. In just three and a half years, he took war-torn Bangladesh to the list of least developed country. While Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib was advancing to build an exploitation-deprivation-free non-communal democratic 'Sonar Bangla' overcoming all obstacles, the anti-liberation forces brutally killed him along with most of his family members on 15 August 1975. After the assassination of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib, the development and progress of Bangladesh came to a halt. The politics of killing, coup and conspiracy started in our beloved motherland. The assassins and their accomplices promulgated the 'Indemnity Ordinance' to block the trial of this heinous murder in the history. Getting the public mandate in 1996, Bangladesh Awami League formed the government after long 21 years. After assuming the office, we took the initiatives to establish H.E. Mr. Md. Abdul Hamid H.E. Sheikh Hasina Bangladesh as a self-respectful in the comity of Hon’ble President of Hon’ble Prime Minister of nations. Through the introduction of social Bangladesh Bangladesh safety-net programs, poor and marginalized people are brought under government allowances. We made the country self-sufficient Today is 26th March, our Independence and Today is the 26th March- our great in food production with special emphasis on National Day. This year we are celebrating the Independence Day. Bangladesh completes 50 agricultural production. The Ganges Water Sharing Treaty was signed with India in 1996.

  • Event Report
    Event Report Page 1 of 8 Celebrating 50 years of Independence: BILIA Lecture Series LECTURE 3 MUJIBNAGAR GOVERNMENT: THE BIRTH OF THE REPUBLIC Though unsung, April 10 is one of the most significant national days in Bangladesh. On this very day in 1971, following the declaration of independence, Bangladesh formed their first government and thereby fulfilled all the criteria of a free and sovereign ‘State’ according to the provisions of international law. On this historic occasion, Bangladesh Institute of Law and International Affairs (BILIA) organized a lecture session on ‘Mujibnagar Government: the Birth of the Republic’ which was held on 29th May of 2021. This was the third lecture of the series initiated by BILIA in celebration of the golden jubilee of the independence of Bangladesh and was held virtually through the zoom platform. Page 2 of 8 Welcome Address In his welcome address, Prof. Dr. Mizanur Rahman, Director, BILIA, greeted the participants and conveyed his gratitude to the keynote speaker, panel discussants, the honourable chair, and other guests present at the event. Then he explained the context of selecting this topic. He said that the formation of the Mujibanagar Government in April 1971 was one of the greatest milestones in our national struggle for freedom. Unfortunately, even after five decades of independence, this extraordinary episode of history has not been well-documented and well- researched. He hoped this lecture will provoke a renewed interest in the issue. Keynote Speech The Keynote speaker of the session was Mr. Justice Shamsuddin Chowdhury, former judge, Appellate Division, Supreme Court of Bangladesh. He, at first, shared his Joy Bangla greetings with Barrister M Amirul Islam, the honorable Chairman of the Bangladesh Institute of Law and International Affairs (BILIA) and other guests.

  • Sheikh Mujibur Rahman
    Sheikh Mujibur Rahman Sheikh Mujibur Rahman (Bengali: ; 17 শখ মুিজবুর রহমান Bangabandhu March 1920 – 15 August 1975), shortened as Sheikh Mujib or just Mujib, was a Bangladeshi politician and statesman. He is called the ববু "Father of the Nation" in Bangladesh. He served as the first Sheikh Mujibur Rahman President of Bangladesh and later as the Prime Minister of শখ মুিজবুর রহমান Bangladesh from 17 April 1971 until his assassination on 15 August 1975.[1] He is considered to be the driving force behind the independence of Bangladesh. He is popularly dubbed with the title of "Bangabandhu" (Bôngobondhu "Friend of Bengal") by the people of Bangladesh. He became a leading figure in and eventually the leader of the Awami League, founded in 1949 as an East Pakistan–based political party in Pakistan. Mujib is credited as an important figure in efforts to gain political autonomy for East Pakistan and later as the central figure behind the Bangladesh Liberation Movement and the Bangladesh Liberation War in 1971. Thus, he is regarded "Jatir Janak" or "Jatir Pita" (Jatir Jônok or Jatir Pita, both meaning "Father of the Nation") of Bangladesh. His daughter Sheikh Hasina is the current leader of the Awami League and also the Prime Minister of Bangladesh. An initial advocate of democracy and socialism, Mujib rose to the ranks of the Awami League and East Pakistani politics as a charismatic and forceful orator. He became popular for his opposition to the ethnic and institutional discrimination of Bengalis 1st President of Bangladesh in Pakistan, who comprised the majority of the state's population.

    journeyjourney ofof bangladesh awamiawami leagueleague 1949-20161949-2016 Bangladesh Awami League is the oldest and largest political party of Bangladesh. With the founding and operating principles of democra- cy, nationalism, socialism and secularism, the party has become synonymous with progress, prosperity, development and social justice. This publication gives a brief account of the illustrious history of the party which has become synonymous with that of the country. Formation - 1949 It was 1949. The wounds of the partition of the Indian Sub-Continent just two years back were still fresh. After the creation of Pakistan, it became im- mediately apparent that the discriminatory politics of the dominant West Pakistan could not live up to the aspirations of the majority Bangali people living in East Pakistan. Disenfranchised, a progressive seg- ment of the Muslim League decided to form their own party. 1949 1949 A Party is Born N 23RD JUNE, the East Pakistan Awami Muslim League was formed at a meeting chaired by Ataur Rahman Khan.

  • Bangabandhu and Evolution of Bangladesh
    769 International Journal of Progressive Sciences and Technologies (IJPSAT) ISSN: 2509-0119. © 2021 International Journals of Sciences and High Technologies http://ijpsat.ijsht-journals.org Vol. 25 No. 2 March 2021, pp. 78-89 Bangabandhu and Evolution of Bangladesh Kazi Ismat Jahan Suvra Lecturer, Department of Economics, Sheikh Hasina University, Netrokona, Bangladesh. Abstract – This paper aims to discuss the charismatic, strong, dedicated and visionary leadership quality of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman. Descriptive qualitative research techniques carried out in this study. The paper shows that Bangabandhu was the real architect of Bangladesh, as he played a significant role in the entire liberation journey, which started in 1952 with the language revolution and proceeded through the democratic movement of 1962, the Six-Point Program of 1966, the Popular Movement of 1969, the enviable success of the election of 1970, and, most significantly, the Liberation War of 1971. The paper also presents haw Bangabandhu had become the unique leader of people and an inseparable part of our history. Keywords – Bangabandhu, charismatic, evolution, liberation war, language movement, six point. I. INTRODUCTION Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman (1920-1975) was the founder and Father of the Nation of Bangladesh, and he was called the greatest Bengali of all time. Within a day, Bangladesh was not established. In the unfulfilled dream of the ancient heroes of Bengal who brought it to their graves, it has persisted for centuries as an idea and an ideal (MacDermot, 1973). Bangabandhu, who inherited this inheritance, developed the idea into a deep and abiding love and gave it structure in the form of Bangladesh's map, which he etched on his heart.

  • The Participation of Women in the Liberation War of Bangladesh in 1971: a Historical Analysis
    American Journal of Humanities and Social Sciences Research (AJHSSR) 2020 American Journal of Humanities and Social Sciences Research (AJHSSR) e-ISSN:2378-703X Volume-4, Issue-8, pp-215-224 www.ajhssr.com Research Paper Open Access The Participation of women in the Liberation War of Bangladesh in 1971: A Historical Analysis Md. Shahin Kadir Bhuiyan1, Tahmina Akter Dipu2 1(Assistant professor, Department of Bangladesh and Liberation War Studies / Noakhali Science and Technology University / Bangladesh) 2(Student / Department of Bangladesh and Liberation War Studies / Noakhali Science and Technology University / Bangladesh) ABSTRACT: “If blood is the price of independence,Bangladesh has paid the highest price in the history” ------- (London Times 1971) This paper quests to know the sacrifices of women in the liberation war of Bangladesh in 1971. Whenever we conceive the participation of women in the liberation war we only envision the women who were censured and raped. But women also participated in the war as fighters, helping hands, cookers, messengers, Diplomats, Inspiration, medical assistants and also as mothers. Most of the woman in Bangladesh participated in the war sometimes directly and sometimes indirectly. Some of our heroines also joined in the front war, among them two women had been awarded as “Bir Pratik”. We know our Liberation war was not an abrupt matter, so the participation of women in liberation war was also not an astonishing thing. If we see the mounting of liberation war, we can see women had participated all the movements as like- Language movement in 1952, The Education Movement in 1962, The six points movement in 1966, The Mass Upsurge in 1969, The Pakistani General Election in 1970, 7th March speech in 1971 at the Race Course Ground.
