Father of the Nation
Ask any Indian, who is your Father of the Nation? They will say Mahatma Gandhi. Ask any Pakistani the same question and the answer will be Muhammad Ali Jinnah. Ask Bangladeshis about their Father of the Nation, the answer to the question will be not that clear. Many of us will hesitate to answer, some are confused, some will say Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman and so on. It is tragic and unfortunate that we educated Bangladeshis are confused and misguided.
It does not matter to Bangabandhu whether he is recognised as the Father of the Nation or not. But why is this meanness of not accepting him as the Father of Bangladesh?
Our forefathers fought under his leadership and Bangabandhu will remain alive as long as Bangladesh exists.
