DHAKA, Aug 25, 2022 (BSS) - Jatiya Sangsad Speaker Dr Shirin Sharmin Chaudury
today urged the young generation to come forward for building a prosperous
country being imbued with the spirit of "Joy Bangla".

She made the call while addressing the Shova Maharat of a liberation war-
based film -"Joy Bangla Dhvani" - at Sheikh Fazilatunnesa Mujib Auditorium of
Bangladesh National Museum at Shahbagh here.

She also officially opened the film's Maharat ceremony.

Speaking as the chief guest, Dr Sharmin said: "The Liberation War is our
pride. The freedom fighters are the celebrated sons of the soil. We are going
ahead due to their sacrifice."

That is why, she said, it is the responsibility of all to collect and
preserve all the information, documents and documents related to the
Liberation War.

"Keeping the slogan Joy Bangla in our hearts, we will do our best to build a
developed and prosperous Bangladesh and this is our pledge," the Speaker
said.

She said the new generation must be imbued with spirit of patriotism through
informing them of the real history of the 1971 Liberation War by making the
war-based films.

After the killing of Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman
on August 15, 1975, Dr Sharmin said ill-attempts were taken to distort the
history of the Great War of Liberation.

After returning home in 1981, Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina took steps to
preserve the true history and documents of the Liberation War, she said.

"We celebrated the golden jubilee of the country's independence under her
leadership," the Speaker said.

Chaired by chairman of the Standing Committee on the Liberation Affairs
Ministry and Awami League presidium member Shajahan Khan, the meeting was
addressed, among others, by former Culture Affairs Minister Asaduzzaman Noor,
Information and Broadcasting secretary Md Mokbul Hossain and director general
of Bangladesh National Museum Md Kamruzzaman.

A One Multimedia proprietor and screenwriter, director and producer of the
movie 'Joy Bangla Dhvani' M Khurshid moderated the event.
