Some memories of martyred President Ziaur Rahman (ePub)

martyred President Ziaur Rahman, is known as the Shepherd King of Bengal. I saw Zia very closely. Millions of salutations and tributes are being paid to this great man today, on his 42nd martyrdom anniversary. Zia passed away at a time when Bangladesh's fractured political and social conditions were on the rise. At that moment, some dangerous army members of this country brutally killed the shepherd king Ziaur Rahman of Bengal. If he had lived for just 7 more years, maybe our golden Bangladesh would have been filled with gold. We didn't have to go abroad to look for labor jobs. We used to need working laborers in our country; it doesn't happen anymore. It's our misfortune. The way I saw Zia and heard her talk are some of her memories. I was very young, and I was very excited. At that time, only the names Zia and Zia were on the lips of big people. Hearing the name of Zia from those respected people, I was curious and thought, "People are so crazy about Zia Zia; who is this Zia? Village people used to talk, and I used to listen. They used to say that despite having 20 bighas of property, people had to go without food. It is known that the reason is that the yield of Aush Aman Boro paddy on the land was very insignificant. It was difficult to meet the annual rice expenses of a family with the crops that were produced. Even if two or three maunds of paddy were produced on one bigha of land, it would repeat itself on the land. By doing this, people will sell paddy from where they will meet the other expenses of the family. Because of this, people had a lot of trouble. Rakhal Raja Zia started researching what could be done for the farmers of Bangladesh by thinking about the plight and suffering of the people.
