The Language Movement, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, and the Bengali Language Md. Ripon Mia, PhD Fellow, Institute of Bangladesh Studies (IBS), University of Rajshahi, Bangladesh | ||
ABSTRACT | ||
Ever since the
establishment of the state of Pakistan, it has been planned to make Urdu the
only state language, excluding Bengali, the language of the majority of the
people. The language movement arose on the occasion of the demand to make
Bengali the state language. The cultural and economic progress of the Bengali
nation was associated with the demand to make Bengali the state language.
Bengali nationalism was developed based on Bengali language. And the ultimate
form of this Bengali nationalism was the independent state of Bangladesh. Like
all political movements during the Pakistan era, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur
Rahman played an active role in the language movement. By establishing the
demand of Bengali language, he thought about building the future of the Bengali
nation on the language question. Full recognition of Bengali language was not
achieved during Pakistan period. Taking over the governance of independent
Bangladesh, Bangabandhu took the initiative to introduce Bengali language at
all levels and took various initiatives to teach Bengali language as a medium
of education. Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman's philosophy of education in
independent Bangladesh was centered on the medium of education. | ||
Key words: Bengali language, Language Movement, Bengali Nationalism, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, Independent Bangladesh. |
