Hello friends,
how are you all, I hope you are well.
I am going to talk today about February 21, 1952. After the partition of India and Pakistan in 1947. Pakistan is divided into two states. Episode Pakistan and West Pakistan. Episode Pakistan and the current name is Bangladesh. West Pakistanis did not brutally oppress Pakistan. They wanted our state language to be Urdu. But the brave Damal boys of Bengal did not allow Urdu to become the state language by sacrificing themselves.
International Mother Language Day is a two-way celebration. Celebrations around the world respect language diversity and divers. It commemorates the students killed during the protests in our country .On February 21, 1952 they were part of the group that was campaigning for the official use of Bengali as our mother tongue.
On that day I went to the house of Shaheed Minar in Savar where everyone took flowers to pay homage to Bahasa Shaheed. There I went with my parents and my younger brother to pay homage to the martyrs. We have breakfast there. After that I went home at 2 in the afternoon
The majority of the population spoke Bengali, they wanted our language to be recognized as an official language. The government banned rallies and public meetings. However, Bengali speakers joined the students of Dhaka University and organized the Bangla language movement. At the height of the protests on February 21, 1952, police opened fire on protesters, killing many students. But it took another four years for the government to declare Bengali as the official language
That is why today, on the morning of 21st February, in the morning on the morning ferry, everyone remembers the martyrs by singing "What can I forget, Ekushey February, angry with my brother's blood". The song was composed by journalist and writer Abdul Gaffer Chowdhury. Today we have no martyrs. We can express our thoughts in our mother tongue. So I will remember Toto for as long as I live. They are the great children of the history of Bengal. The Shaheed Minar was erected at Savar in 1952 in memory of Vahasa Shaheed. Every year on 21st February we give flowers at Shaheed Minor in Savar.
Finally, we want to say that he is the only founder of the mother tongue of Bangladesh. Who sacrificed their lives for the mother tongue of Bangladesh!
