How Nazrul's politics can help heal Bangladeshi society today
Bangladesh, as a newborn country that emerged in the late 20th century, holds a good reputation for religious harmony. People from diverse religious backgrounds uniting together struggled for independence against the Pakistani authority and defeated them comprehensively.
However, the country has gone through a fundamental political and social transformation over the past few decades. The recent outbreak of violent activities in the name of religion within the country has been a serious worry for the civilians. The attack on religious minorities two months ago at Shalla of Sunamganj District stands contradictory to the spirit of nationalism of the country.
