Today is the historic Mujibnagar Day, the day Bangladesh’s first government took oath in 1971 amid the Liberation War.

The 1971 Bangladesh Liberation War was not merely a military conflict; it was a civilisational rupture that tore through the social fabric of an entire nation, leaving scars that have never properly healed.

The proclamation laid the foundation for the country's distinct political identity and its eventual path to independence.

The necessity that was felt a few days after the Declaration of Independence of Bangladesh was that of a Government which could take upon itself the burden of directing the liberation struggle.
