What's new

Bihar for Biharis!

Why don't you come out and say the name.It was Gandhi who proposed Ram Rajya or Swaraj for Hindus and a separate country for Muslims. He even told Nehru not keep Muslims in the new india who stayed with their own volition.

Mahatma Gandhi was shot dead for NOT doing the things you are accusing him of doing, especially the bold part.

I am not accusing anything. Take a simple truth the way it is written in history.
Don't twist it.
And do you really want to go the whole 9 years just to confirm historical event,which I have stated?
Open a thread in indian defense ,I will reply there.

O

h plz grow up.You need to read ,travel,go places,meet new people, different cultures and again read some more.
I hate the sound of the bangla the indian bangla speaking state use.But,its their country their rule.Do you know bangla is the official 2 and language in a African country. Now,the learn it from army personnel stationary there who comes from different parts of Bangladesh. After say 10 to 15 years a new bangla will emerge in Africa with African ,Arabic,English words dominating bangla.And they in turn laugh at us for not pronouncing the right way.
Tow know the difference between a language in two country one should spend some time in UK and USA both for considerable time to understand .not as a month long tourists .


No no,just facts.
Not everything is jokes here.
those African countries officially recognized it for a ceremonial purpose. in the hypothetical scenario that they choose to make it mainstream they will only contribute to the literature of the Calcutta babus, according to history. what The Snow Queen said was in deliberate mocking sense (although that is how many BDis view Calcutta Bangla or formal Bangla) but the history and ownership of the formal Bengali should be known. a hateful linguistic nationalism based on that by Muslims is as hollow and retarded as it can get

Btw its pretty amusing that @DRAY babus love for bhasha shahids is oozing out.:lol: Indian crocodile tears. :pop:

Those Bhasha Shohids were Bengalis who sacrificed their lives for my language Bengali, not for your language Arabic. :lol:

i think with so much discussion and source-citing in the language related threads, there was an info overload. and the drawn conclusions got missed. what i am saying is not khair_ctg's opinion but plain fact.

the formal Bengali has always historically been foreign to Bengali Muslims. our native dialects back then and now (Musalman Bengali) was not standardized, because we used to use Persian or Urdu as a standardized refined language. the occasional instances that Bangla was written in Persian-Arabic script was not very widespread. for example, we do not use chatgaiya as a written language because it was not developed as such. whereas the Muslims contributed to the development of Farsi and Urdu, the Hindus developed Bengali especially in the colonial period. that is why formal Bengali became a Hindu language.

during colonial period even though Muslims would be adept at Urdu and some, at Farsi, they started to learn the formal Bangla or the Hindu Bangla, because it was a Hindu dominated society in Bengal. the descendants of a small number of those very Muslims became the leftist/communists we modern Bangladeshis know as. this invasion by Bengali leftists/communists, also backed by Calcutta babus, using formal Bengali has to do with a broader scheme of getting rid of any Muslim aristocracy and any associated refined culture. as such the hostility shown towards Urdu for example by some Bengali leftists was not really part of their hostility towards former West Pakistan, but a hostility towards the Muslim heritage of East Bengal/EP/BD. this has obviously devastated Bengal's Muslim society, made us isolated and made us pawns of the Hindus according to history. and sorry i don't see any silver lining here

You explain it very well. Our langage was never standardised Bengali.

They sacrificed for the independence of Bangladesh from both ******** and Pakis.

And the language is called Bangla not Bengali.

What?? When did this Bhasha Andolan happened? In which year? What was the issue? Do you even know anything about Bhasha Anodolon?

And the language is called Bangla not Bengali.

Utterly silly.

Offcoarse I know! Bhasha andolon happened in 1952 but the independence war happened in 1971! We fought for our country to be independent not only because of language but for FREEDOM! Because we want an independent and sovereign country for our own, free from India and Pakistan!

Utterly silly.

Please tell me, what is so silly in here???? It is called Bangla because the word Bengali only exist in the internet; I mean that's where I always see it. But I always hear everyone call it here, "Bangla" not "Bengali" and even the subject in my early school days was called Bangla not Bengali. We always say Bangla not Bengali. And call ourselves Bangladehsi or Bangali, but mainly Bangladeshi.

Which one is not fact? Are you denying that Gandhi asked for separate country for Muslims and Hindus of india?
Then you should contact Sotheby in London because they sold the letter addressed to Mountbatten by his own handwriting conveying his worries about a united india consisting Hindus and Muslims.
And the party bought the latter is non other than your own government.

Please show us the transcript of that particular letter that you are so happily misconstruing to demean the legacy of a great man.

"Even if I am killed,
I will not give up repeating the names of Ram and
Rahim, which mean to me the same God. With
these names on my lips, I will die cheerfully."- Mahatma Gandhi

The world knows he has always advocated Hindu-Muslim unity even when everyone else didn't, then who are you to say otherwise.
Just coz you said the word "truth" doesn't make it so, prove it.
