Paragraph - The 21st February

Paragraph - The 21st February
The 21st February is a memorable day in our national life. The day bears the memory of the great 'language Movement' which was at the root of our liberation war. In 1947, Pakistan was established but soon we understood that we did not have equal share with the other citizens of Pakistan. A clear indication of this was given in the efforts to make Urdu the only 'State Language' of Pakistan. The Bengalis opposed it from the very beginning. On the 21st February 1952, the police fired on a demonstration in favour of Bangla as one of the State Languages of Pakistan. A number of patriotic sons of the then Bengal, namely Rafiq, Abul Barkat, Salam, and Jabbar laid down their lives. Since then, it acts as a symbol of our national inspiration. The day is observed with great respect and enthusiasm. Innumerable processions are brought out early in the morning and they end up at the 'Sahid Minar'. Banners and posters are also displayed on this day. Meetings, seminars, symposiums, and cultural ceremonies are also held throughout the country. This day is not merely a day of ceremonies. It reminds us of our history, cultural heritage, and national identity. It also gives us a direction to our national life. Now, it has been declared the 'International Mother Language Day'. The world has approved of our sacrifice and national issue. It is a great achievement for our country and the nation. We are really proud of this day.
