Independence Day
The
26th march, 1971 on which the independence of Bangladesh was
declared, is regarded as our Independence Day. It is a red letter day in our
national life. The barbarous Pak Army lanced an inhuman attack on the innocent
and the peace loving citizens of Bangladesh on the 25th march, 1971.
They killed thousands of men and women and raped innumerable women. They also killed hundreds of intellectuals of
the country. Sheikh Mujib was taken to unknown place of West Pakistan.The
Bangladeshis realized their actual position when Bangladesh was declared on the
26th March, 1971. After nine months struggle Bangladesh emerged as
an independent State. On this day we pay rich tribute to the memory of the
martyrs who laid their lives for the sake of our Independence. Every year the
day is celebrated in the country with great enthusiasm and fervour. It is a
national holiday. All offices, educational institutions, shops and factories
remain closed on this day. The national flag is hoisted on the top of each
house and office. In the evening, all major public buildings are illuminated
with colourful lights. It is a cheerful day in the history of Bangladesh. The
26th March will be remembered forever as the Independence Day in the
history of Bangladesh.
