INDEPENDENCE DAY
26 March is our Independence Day. It is our biggest state festival and a public holiday. But the independence of Bangladesh is not attained overnight. Once this territory had, been a colony of Great Britain for about 190 years. It had again been trapped by the Pakistanis. The Pakistanis had exploited Bangladesh for about 25 years. Bengalees had become crippled economically, physically and mentally by the ill treatment of the Pakistanis. However, we achieved our independence from the despotic and oppressive Pakistani occupation forces through a bloody war of nine months. It was achieved at the cost of a sea of blood, and loss of chastity of our mothers and daughters. Our countrymen had to undergo a tremendously oppressive time during the war. However, the heroic sons of the soil fought bravely and we ultimately gained freedom making than surrender to us and the Independence Day is celebrated with great enthusiasm and fervour across the country. The day begins with 31 gunshots. Early in the morning, the President and the. Prime Minister on behalf of the nation offer floral wreath at the National Memorial as a token of love and honour to the martyred heroic sons of the Liberation War. Various social and cultural organizations and almost all the educational institutions arrange different kinds of programmes on this day. Our long cherished freedom, achieved at a great price will be a real one only when we will ensure economic and social freedom for all. On this day, we should pledge that we will protect our freedom against all evil powers unitedly at any cost.
