15 August: A Day of National Mourning

-an august day in the history of Bangladesh
-a day of homicide in a newly independent nation
-an unprecedented crushed day of an august family
-all about it in the early hours of 15 August 1975

-the result: a rare assassination of the President and his other family members followed by the birth of a new president Khondaker Mostaq Ahmed

The eventual state of the Nation turned into a disastrous famine. The same was reflected by Mujib’s commonly quoted utterances:..
[My translated version:]
“When a country is freed, all find a gold mine, all the same I found a mine of thieves. Thieves are on my right, on my left, in front and behind, everywhere are thieves and thieves. Whatever I bring in from foreign countries, all are eaten up by these thieves. I brought 75 million blankets for 75 million people, all the same I haven’t found mine either.”..

[“দেশ স্বাধীন করলে সবাই পায় সোনার খনি আর আমি পেয়েছি চোরের খনি..!!

…. The Jatiyo Rakkhi Bahini (National Security Force) was seriously controversial. This political militia force was formed in 1972 with a status of an elite force (loyal to Sheikh Mujibur). The force performed something upside down. It did not collect the arms from the civilians as assigned as though it would protect the Mujibur-regime from falling. It is commonly considered as one leading cause of dissatisfaction among the army and the subsequent assassination.

The other glaring reason was the left wing insurgency (1972 - 1975). Its activities are likely to have led the ultimate assassination.
