I can never forget

I can never forget

I am Bangladesh. I remember 1971. I remember Yahya Khan. I remember my freedom fighters. I remember my enemy. I remember my ally. I remember my daughters. I remember my people. 

Note:
Some of the numbers used in this infographic (specially the number of deaths during the Liberation War) cannot be verified since there are many sources that quote many numbers. Bangladesh's total population in 1971 was 75 million. The Pakistan Government puts the figure as low as 26,000 civilian casualties, while most other sources state a range. The historian R J Rummel, who has looked as deeply into it as anyone, concludes that the “final estimate to be 300,000 to 3,000,000, or a prudent 1,500,000. An Oxford historian declared that there were no more than 50,000 to 100,000 deaths. The Bangladesh government states 3 million deaths. Bangladesh in Numbers cited 3 million for this infographic, the number found as the upper limit in most cases.

Black Nights of 1971

Black Nights of 1971

Bangladeshis remember 25 March 1971 and 14 December 1971 as black nights. It's been more than four decades since the Pakistani occupying forces murdered 989 school and university teachers throughout Bangladesh in an attempt to cripple the country and dampen its spirit of liberation. But they could not rein the uprising. They could not rein our thirst for freedom.
