Reading Test: International Mother
21 February is a memorable day in our national history. We observe the
Language
day every Day
year as International Mother Language Day. The day is a national
holiday.On this day, we pay tribute to the martyrs who laid down their
lives to establish Bangla as a state language in undivided Pakistan in
1952. This is known as the Language Movement.

The seed of the Language Movement was Sown on 21 March 1948

when Mohammad Ali Zinnah, the then Governor General of Pakistan, at
a public meeting in Dhaka declared that Urdu would be the only official
language of Pakistan. The declaration raised a storm of protest in the
eastern part of the country. The protest continued non-stop, gathering
momentum day by day. It turned into a movement and reached its
climax in 1952. The government outlawed all sorts of public meetings
and rallies to prevent it.

The students of Dhaka University defied the law and they brought out a
peaceful
protest procession on 21 February 1952. When the procession reached
near Dhaka
Medical College, the police opened fire on the students, killing Salam,
Rafiq, Barkat
