Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, affectionately known as Bangabandhu and revered as the Father of the Nation of Bangladesh, was born on March 17, 1920, in Tungipara, Gopalganj. From his student days, he emerged as a charismatic leader, actively participating in the Language Movement, the Six-Point Movement, and leading the 1971 Liberation War. His historic speech on March 7, 1971, provided the ultimate inspiration for Bangladesh's independence struggle and has been recognized by UNESCO as a World Documentary Heritage. As the architect of independent Bangladesh, he played a pivotal role in nation-building until his tragic assassination along with most of his family on August 15, 1975. Bangabandhu's ideals continue to live eternally in the hearts of every Bangladeshi citizen.
