Langalbandh:

On way to Mograpara from Dhaka along Dhaka-Chittagong highway, a few kilometers off Sitalakkha bridge, a street offshoots on the right that leads to a place Langalbandh (about 27 km east from Dhaka) noted as holy place to the Hindu community. On the last day of Chaittra (last month of bangla calendar - mid April) Hindu devotees gather there in large number to take holy dip in the river which is a branch of Brahmaputra.

I don't want to get into the "what came first" argument again. You have taken my post out of context.

Very funny Akmal bhai. He was using the word 'Dada" to Iajdani instead of Bhai.

At first I have thought that It was of Abir. I have said that in the later.

@ All his posts are self contradictory. How come Seraj is a Bangladeshi origin ?

Everybody is from One origin i.e. Adam. Shiraz's mother and father were born in Brihot Bangladesh. His previous many generations were from Brihot Bangladesh. In this sense He is must from the Bangladeshi origin. So, there is no confusion. Many people try to prove that Shiraz is a outsider to Bangladesh. By proving that they want to justify of their betray with Shiraz. Shiraz is definitely born in Bangladesh and reared in this territory. He is a great patriotic soldier and he is our brother. There is no confusion. Mir Jafar was born in Persia.Hey, all living beings of this territory be united with your own beliefs, work with unity . Don’t betray each other because it is your own territory whatever your religion and color. You are product of this soil whatever what is source of your precursor sperm and ovum. Don’t betray the own soil. You should make it free from evils for you. Don’t invite enemy. You should know the enemy and fight against them with the help of all living organisms of your territory. You should love them all because all of them are created from same lands and same preparations. Never kill anyone of your territory or never help other to kill your territory members. Beliefs may be different but origin is same soil. Love your origin and keep it up as it is own your origin. Don’t love other country or other aggressor as those are enemies and keep free the territory from enemies. Build your nation as your own home and love all members as your own. You are the container of bloods of Shashangko, Titumir,Vashani, Mujib and Zia. Those persons should be born in every house.

That man was the original founder of the Awami Muslim League. He doesn't get enough credit he deserves.
