Such is the scale of suffering endured by so many people for the cause of Bangladesh’s independence, that with each year that passes, their legacy looks ever more remarkable. Bangladesh today proves the most basic of cases for independence. It was a true victory of the people by the people and deserves to be discussed that way. It is inspiring still though, to consider just how unique Bangladesh’s liberation was in 1971. The people of today definitely need to do more to live up to the values upheld by the victory of independence.
