I agree although the Buriganga with its effluence and waste may be the most appropriate choice.
I also propose that "Bismillah..." be removed from the constitution and replaced with "bismilbangabandu.....".
To seal the deal, all references to the Prophet should be removed from a new and official BAL version of the Quran as neither he nor the Almighty had any contribution to the glorious independence war, you know the Bangabandhu v Pakistan war where one man single handedly defeated an entire army.
Joy Bangla!

Subject: [ALOCHONA] Naming Dhaka as" Mujib Nagar"
In order to pay our indebtedness to Father of the Nation, Bangabondhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman I propose to change the name of Dhaka to "Mujib Nagar"
and "Bay of Bengal" to "Bay of Bangabondhu".
Any comments from the Alochoks?
