Bangladesh observes the day in commemoration of the language martyrs and in honour of our mother tongue, Bangla. The day very important in our life because we have achieved Bangla as our state language. There is specific historical Background of this day. The then Pakistani autocrat declared that Urdu would be the state language of pakistan. The Bangla language never developmented anything against anybody but demanded its right and legal place. On 21st February 1952, some valiant sons of our country revolted against their decision and laid down their lives for our mother tongue, Bangla. Since then, the day has been observed as our Shaheed Day commemorating the sacrifice of the language martyrs like Salam, Rafiq, Barkat and Jabbar. It has brought honour and dignity for us.
