  2. তুমি আমার কাছে মায়ের হাসির মতো কোমল, বাবার জায়নামাজের মতো পবিত্র। তোমার মাঝে আমার শৈশব, কৈশোর , যৌবন। মহান রবের দেয়া অমূল্য আমানত তুমি। হে রব আমার,আমাদের জীবনের শেষ দিন পর্যন্ত এই ভূমি হেফাজত করুন এবং আমাদের শ্রেষ্ঠ প্রজন্ম হওয়ার তৌফিক দান করুন। আমিন

    We are proud for our Gen Z🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩

  4. Why did The Guardian barely report on this while Hasina's cops and Chhatra League were murdering students? The disinterest was deafening?
