32 Dhan Mundi is no ordinary leaf for the people of Bangladesh. This is the address of the official residence of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, who turned East Pakistan into Bangladesh, where he was killed along with 17 or 18 other family members on the night of August 15 by a few junior army officers.
In Bangladesh, August 15 is a public holiday to mark the anniversary of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman. Until last year, this day used to be a public holiday.
Now Bangladesh has taken a U-turn and such a U-turn that those who came to pay homage to Sheikh Mujibur Rahman at the official residence of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, which is a national monument, had to face severe fear and panic. The angry mob chased them away.
On this occasion, a few musicians also performed lungi dance. The dance was performed to a song from Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan’s film Chennai Acres, sung by Honey Singh.
