International Mother Language Day is celebrated on February 21st to promote linguistic and cultural diversity. In Bangladesh, this day holds special significance as it commemorates the Bengali Language Movement of 1952. The movement aimed to establish Bengali as the official language of East Pakistan, now Bangladesh. It is a day to honor the martyrs who sacrificed their lives for the preservation of their mother language. The language movement eventually led to the recognition of Bengali as one of the official languages of Pakistan. Today, the day is observed worldwide to promote multilingualism and protect linguistic heritage. Let us celebrate the diversity of languages and the cultural identity they represent. #MotherLanguageDay #Bangladesh #LanguageMovement #LinguisticDiversity
