Martyred Intellectuals' Day

Martyred Intellectuals' Day has become a part of formality. Like every December we do not want to hear any more pledges. People now want to see justice. War criminals' punishment is now the demand of the nation. It is high time for raising voice and forging unity for the trial of the war criminals. The crime committed by them is unpardonable. They killed our eminent intellectuals . Over the past decades, war criminals have been patronised by successive governments. As a result, after thirty-six years of Liberation War they dare to insult the freedom fighters. No government bothered to take the initiative to try the war criminals. As a nation it is really unfortunate for all of us.
