"Politics and democracy are for the people
It should not be used as a weapon against the people,
Freedom fighter's reputation must not be politicised"
Why are freedom fighters' reputations being used for politics or being politicised in Bangladesh?
Is it good for a country or country people?
We, everybody, respect freedom fighters mostly, no doubt at all.
Why and who included fake freedom fighters in the name of revision?
First list after liberation:
1970s: Shortly after the Liberation War, the first list of freedom fighters was compiled based on records, personal accounts, and recommendations from various sectors and local administrations.
Major Revisions:
1980s: The list underwent significant revisions to include more names and address initial omissions.
1990s: Further scrutiny and verification processes led to additional changes, including the removal of names that could not be verified and the addition of overlooked individuals.
2002-2004: The government undertook a comprehensive review to address concerns about the accuracy and integrity of the list. This period saw a considerable number of names being added and removed.
2009-2013: During this time, the list was reviewed again, and more rigorous verification processes were implemented. This included the collection of more detailed information and documentation from claimants.
2014-2015: A major update was announced, leading to the inclusion of additional verified freedom fighters. This period saw the introduction of digital records to enhance transparency and accessibility.
2016-2018: Further revisions took place, focusing on verifying claims and addressing disputes regarding inclusion and exclusion from the list.
2021: On the occasion of the 50th anniversary of Bangladesh's independence, a significant update was made. This included a fresh verification process and the publication of an updated list in government gazettes.
It was a conspiracy theory.
We should not divide our country by politicising our glorious achievements.
Who is liable for that?
