Amar Ekushey and the hoax
Every year 21 February is observed to commemorate those who sacrificed their valuable lives in 1952 so that our people could use Bangla as the official language.
 
To Sheikh Hasina...
I want to send a message to AL president Sheikh Hasina to ask her how did she know that people wouldn't accept extra-constitutional government.

Ekushey at Birmingham University
The International Mother Language Day was celebrated at International Development Department of Birmingham University, UK, on 21 February with due respect and enthusiasm.
 
Commuters in trouble
As a citizen of Bangladesh I am very happy to see the actions and activities of the present caretaker government. And people are also very pleased like me.
