It mentions the Mujibnagar government-Tajuddin Ahmad, Mansur Ali, AHM Qamaruzzaman, and Khandaker Mushtaq Ahmed were part of it and all of them were freedom fighters." The interim government issued an ordinance on Tuesday amending the National Freedom Fighters' Council Act, enacted three years ago. The ordinance introduces a revised definition of "freedom fighter" and designates some previously recognised individuals as "collaborators of the Liberation War". On Wednesday, the adviser said: "The war was led by this [Mujibnagar] government.”
