The emergence of Independent Bangladesh in 1971 through a liberation war is the most memorable event in the history of the Bangalee nation. For the first time in its history the Bangalee nation was able to form an independent nation state. The independence of Bangladesh carried with it a thousand years’ history laden with countless memories, sacrifices and struggles. The name of the Great Leader of the War of Independence of the country and Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman will remain engraved in golden letters in the history of independent Bangladesh.
In Pakistan founded on the basis of the so-called Two-nation Theory the question of Bangalee nation issue could not find any resolution. The struggle for establishing an independent nation state began in 1947 which culminated in 1971. In the first phase of the struggle, the success of the language movement added a new dimension to the movement for the establishment of nationhood of the Bangalees. The 1954 elections lent further momentum to the consciousness of the people of East Bengal. Independent, sovereign People’s Republic of Bangladesh took its place in the map of the world as the culmination of a long series of events, uncompromising struggle and movement against the misrule of the Pakistanis from 1958 to 1971, the victory of the Awami League in the general elections in 1970 with absolute majority, the non-cooperation movement of 1971, clarion call for independence on March 7 at the race course maidan, the declaration of independence by Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman on March 26, formation of an independent Bangladesh government on April 10, 1971, the formal swearing-in of the Government of independent Bangladesh (composed of the elected parliament members) at Mujibnagar on April 17, the establishment of a full-fledged administrative system under the sovereign Bangladesh Government and the defeat of the Pakistani occupation army after the nine-month long liberation war under the leadership of that government. The work for the reconstruction of the war-ravaged country and its economy started in full earnest in 1972 under the leadership of Bangabandhu. But local and foreign agents of the forces defeated in the war tried to impede Bangabandhu’s efforts. A band of traitors brutally killed the Father of the Nation along with most members of his family on August 15, 1975. The same year on November 3 the assassins hired by Khondoker Mustaque Ahmed, the usurper president of the country brutally killed in the Dhaka central jail four national leaders who had led the War of Liberation. The expectations, ideals and consciousness which had led to the birth of independent Bangladesh were turned upside down, the moral and political values of independence war were trampled upon. The local lackeys of the Pakistanis usurped power, let loose a reign of killings, coups and conspiracies and military dictatorship and again snatched away the rights of the people. For the last 21 years the erosion of social values, political instability, virtual annulment of people’s franchise, corruption of the election procedures, economic stagnation, faulty and motivated policy of education, embezzlement of funds worth hundreds of millions of dollars, increased disparity between the rich and the poor, lack of a sense of direction etc. came out as the characteristics of our national life. In this context the struggle and movement gaining momentum through more than 21 years led to the coming to power of the pro-liberation forces through a free and fair election under a caretaker government on June 12, 1996. The nation celebrated the Silver Jubilee of independence in 1996.
The end of the cold war has generated new opportunities for the development of humankind. Regional and sub regional cooperation is taking positive shape in various regions of the world. We have to move rapidly on to the track of economic development in accordance with the changed global scenario. Otherwise we will trail behind other nations in the global competition of the new century. Proper planning and direction, optimum utilization of human and other resources, proper use of science and technology specially IT sector are necessary for the development of a nation. Similarly basic knowledge of the soul-searching of the country, its history, tradition, politics, economics, society, structure, trends of change, study of the country’s art, culture, literature, faith etc. are necessary. It is unfortunate that our achievement is very poor in these areas. Our country has a dearth of basic research relating to various aspects of society and life. It is only knowledge based on fundamental research which can open the doors of development for the nation besides giving a sense of direction. Based on that realization, in the Silver Jubilee year of our independence (1996) and the War of Liberation, an initiative was taken for establishing Bangladesh Foundation for Development Research (BFDR). It is a research organization built on individual initiatives, and is run by independent, voluntary participation.
THE BFDR IS A LEADING NON-PROFIT PUBLIC POLICY RESEARCH THINK-TANK, FOUNDED AND SUPPORTED BY A CROSS-SECTION OF LEADING INTELLECTUALS, ACADEMICS, PUBLIC FIGURES, SOCIAL ACTIVISTS, HUMAN RIGHTS ACTIVISTS, INSTITUTIONS OF HIGHER LEARNING, BUSINESS LEADERS, REPESENTATIVES OF WOMEN’S NGOs & MINORITY COMMUNITY NGOs OF BANGLADESH.
