We should not take every thing Sajib Waged says seriously. One problem with our political culture is that no leader from AL will protest what Sajib has said as he is none but the son of our PM.Instead of making such a strong and wrong comment, he could have said that "Joy Bangla" slogan was a natural product of our liberation war and it should be respected and chanted by us. Also reference to the point in time when the "Bangladesh Zindanad" was introduced by the leaders of the August coup is noteworthy. Obviously those who created it and those who followed it and still have been using it are showing disrespect to the national feelings of 1971 although all of them are not necessarily anti-liberation forces.

No, no. It is WRONG to say that the word 'zindabad' itself is bad because it is Urdu. Sajeeb Wazed was careless to have made that remark. A language by itself is not, cannot be, an enemy of people. Moreover, Urdu/Hindi has always been a part of the cultural space of Bengal. We are a multicultural, multi-religious, SECULAR nation.
We are deadly opposed to the cry of 'Bangladesh Zindabad' because it echoes 'Pakistan Zindabad', and makes the nation of Bangladesh nothing more than a ditto of Pakistan.
Those who are defending 'Bangladesh Zindabad' are playing dirty politics, and are trying to push the IDEA of Pakistan (1947) down our throat. The sneaky effort is an effort to obliterate Muktijuddho 1971 from our national and cultural identity.

সজীব ওয়াজেদ বলেন, 'তারা "জয় বাংলা" বলে না, বলে "জিন্দাবাদ"। যেটা উর্দু শব্দ। বাংলা ভাষায় "জিন্দাবাদ" বলে কোনো শব্দ নেই।Awami is a Urdo word....then AwamiLeague is a Pakistani Agent Rajakar party by the virtue of his own stupid logic?The people who utter the following Arabic words are definitely Arab terrorist
