About :
- 16 December 2023 marks the 52nd (1971-2023) Anniversary of the Glorious Victory Day of the Great Liberation War of Bangladesh. After a long struggle, the Bangalee people irrespective of religion or color became united in 1971 under the indomitable, undaunted, vigorous and brave leadership of Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman. It was a glorious chapter in the annals of Bangladesh. On this day in 1971 Bangalee nation, under the charismatic leadership of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, achieved the ultimate victory over Pakistan after 24 years of intense political struggle and a nine-month long bloody war of liberation.
- During the Great Liberation War of Bangladesh Pakistan Army and its local collaborators (Al-Badr, Al-Shams and the Razakars) carried out the worst, hellish and devised genocide of the 20th century in Bangladesh and killed 3 million people. 200 thousand women lost their innocence in the Great Liberation War of Bangladesh. An estimated 10 million Bangalee refugees fled to neighboring country India while 30 million were internally displaced.
- On the 52nd anniversary of Great Victory Day let us all work from our respective position under the leadership of Honorable Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, the able daughter of the Great Hero of Independence, the Great Architect of Independent and Sovereign Bangladesh, Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman for building a hunger-free, poverty-free, exploitation-free, secular, happy and prosperous democratic Bangladesh as dreamt by Bangabandhu and 3 million martyrs of Great Liberation War of Bangladesh.
- On this Great Victory Day we recall Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman with profound respect and pay our deepest homage to him. We also pay our sincere homage to all martyrs and valiant Freedom Fighters of the Great Liberation War of Bangladesh who gifted us this Free and Independent Bangladesh. We wish all Bangladeshi nationals, in country and abroad a joyous and prosperous Victory Day-2023.
